Maybe "entitled" was the wrong word although that is how I feel. We are not "entitled" any more than you are entitled to a Senior Discount at Dunkin Donuts or anywhere else. However as a courtesy to those who live here it would be just something "nice" to do for residents just like the resident discount they give on many other shows or those "senior citizen" discounts many places give. Are seniors ENTITLED to discounts? Why? Because we are old? No, it's just a courtesy.

One notable player is AMERICAN EXPRESS. If you are a card holder you get first dibs for up to a week on MANY shows & concerts. It's a "thank you" for supporting them. We used it many times in NY. Got early seats to a lots of concerts & shows before they go on sale to the public.

Just would be a "nice thing" to do? But "REPREHENSIBLE!" PUHLEESE! Lighten up a bit. I can name a lot of things that are truly "reprehensible" but this isn't a political forum and requesting early or first access to seats ain't one. GEEZ, people really get bent out of shape around here. LOL!
Weird Font? I guess you don't get out very much. It's a standard font.

Perhaps "reprehensible" was used to mimic your use of "entitled," but you got my point.
Under the best of circumstances Villagers are not entitled to a break on availability or prices at The Sharon.
And you compare The Sharon to American Express giving freebies or exceptions? That is laughable!

I don't ever do Dunkin' Donuts so their discount isn't an issue for me.
Most places that offer a senior discount can also be found on the stock exchange and the last time I looked, The Sharon wasn't listed.
If you don't get the comparison, I will be happy to explain it to you.

And yes -- I find Villagers who feel entitled (to anything), are reprehensible. It's an attitude thing with which I choose not to identify -- never did and never will.
