Not that I am agreeing with Ed, but he is correct that American Express has some deal where card holders can PURCHASE tickets to events before the tickets are available to the general public. I have seen Visa and MasterCard do the same thing. They get to do this because they are generally sponsors of the event or venue.

The Villages could probably do this for events at our venues by the use of a special website. But as soon as they do someone will be here crying and moaning about how The Villagers receive special treatment. It is a no win situation. So the tickets go on sale to all at the same time. If you want tickets to a popular show, you better be online when the tickets go on sale. No standing in line at a box office!

Yes we should be given an advantage, if not, then we might as well live in stonecrest in a much nicer and larger house, for less money to boot.

OK, again, so I did a google search for Jersey Boys tickets at the Sharon and came up with 4 hits. Seatgeek, Cheaptickets, Bigstub and Ticketmate dot com. The only problem I saw is that all 4 sites were offering THE SAME tickets. Not entire sections, just a few here and there. Still not sure there is a massive conspiracy as others have suggested. BTW, single and other tickets are starting to show up on TOTV.

Ahha! It appears that you are unaware of how your posts look to many of us. (See attachment.) It actually depends on your particular device and browser of choice settings. Check under default font formatting to correct.

My font size is considerably smaller than yours.
Her font looks fine and like everyone else's to me, so you may be correct...and it depends on the device one is using.

Really? I don't think the lifestyle in Stonecrest can compare with what we are so lucky to experience here in TV.

Yep, weird font (size). That I find diminishes the forceful intent of the poster, and makes reading comical.

The font is Comic Sans. You can read about it's history here:

Entitlement Does Not Belong in The Villages

Oh, let me think about that . . .

So, 125,000 residents of The Villages should be given an advantage for purchasing tickets to an event at The Sharon.
Really??!?

That would also mean that all restaurants here should give everyone a discount.
That all shoppes should give all residents a discount, too, eh?
That would hold true for all grocery stores, etc., I guess.
Shall I go on?

No one who lives in The Villages should ever feel entitled to anything that no other person should get.
This is a community, not a welfare town and The Sharon is privately owned.
What makes some people feel they deserve this kind of entitlement???
