Angry What a way to run get reservations for Covid - Eventbrite is a Joke

Tried this morning at 8 and thought I was lucky Eventbrite told me they were looking for a ticket ??? >> Hopeful but 14 minutes later it came back and said sorry for making you wait but all tickets were sold - They must send the request to someone sitting in their garage by smoke signal (after they start the fire) who then has to review all of the 200 tickets sold (after they first drink their coffee ) to ensure there was still 1 or 2 left of the 200 and then finish their 2nd cup of coffee and start another fire to send a smoke signal back to Eventbrite who then sends me a message that all tickets are sold >> impressive. I think they should have asked Alexa, she would have known immediately.

That's not all > now they sent me an email indicating Sumter county issued new tickets/reservations in Feb but when I go to the site they point me to which (hasn't actually started yet ) it tells me all tickets were Sold out for that date.

I guess the good news is that I'm not waiting in a long line outside in the cold for shots I won't get, I'm sitting at home in a long line with 10,000 others (that's a guess) in front of a computer trying to figure out how to use Eventbrite to get covid shot tickets, getting frustrated (because we have a big cruise in April and won't leave if we don't have the 2 shots by then).
Oh well, its too cold for golf, Pickleball or dancing in the Square.

Think positive they might add 100 more tickets next month.
