Enough with the tickets already.
 
Time to end this ridiculous system. If you arrive and you feel unsafe, go home. Simple.

There have more than A few posters that have witnessed this.

We were one who need a third ticket and the two in front of us picked their are tickets laughing that that keeps four people from infecting us if they can’t go to see music.
I asked if we could have one of their tickets if they were not going to use them. Both looked at me said something explicit, and then tore them up and threw them in the trash.

Yes there are people here that think that they can control your life, And know more than you

Get in after 6 without.
Waited on line, very short.
People gave their passes in when leaving.
We did the same when we left.
No problem with capacity, no wait.
Very easy and enjoyable.
People are distancing pretty well and respectful.
Life is good, do not listen to nasty, negative people, dance, dance, dance.

And so on and so forth. No one is obligated to show up at the earliest moment, and stay all the way to the end. And some got tickets thinking "hey I might want to go to this, but not sure, so just in case, I'll get tickets." And some will say "ohh - something free! Who cares if I go or not, it's free, so I'll get tickets."

Doesn't matter though, after 6 you can get in without a ticket anyway.

Plus, the idea is for the #square to NOT be crowded. So even if all the ticket holders are there, it will look a lot less crowded than it used to.

According to the ticket takers who I asked at LSL, after 6PM you do not need a ticket as long as the capacity has not been met and from the looks of it with maybe 1 or 2 exceptions it is not met. If you wait until later (after 7) it's likely you won't have an issue. If you wait until 8 (the last set) it's virtually empty. Wit the exception of The Hoooooooligans a week or so ago and Clark Barios last night it looks pretty empty. Not sure why they bother with tickets they should just do the count then cut it off when met.

Tickets avoid long lines in the square which make social distancing difficult

Brownwood was crowded last Wednesday when the Hooligans were there. There was actually a line after 6 to get in.

Parker614 11-02-2020 08:52 AM

That's exactly what's happening. It's some immature people's way of protesting the squares being open. JUST STAY HOME if you don't want the squares open!!

They will let you in after 6 if they aren't over their limit. 250 for Brownwood. and 300 for the other 2 squares.

I have gone to all the squares without tickets. I usually don't go until around 7pm when some people start leaving. They keep track of how many people are in there and let you in when the count is low enough. The bands have been excellent and I am able to keep my social distancing.

Garywt 11-02-2020 11:40 AM

Are the tickets just to get to the middle of the square. If we sit across the street or in our golf cart is a ticket needed?

Susanzp 11-02-2020 12:01 PM

Where do you reserve the tickets at?

rphil11ort 11-02-2020 12:52 PM

they let you in after 6 if not over 250 people

Rosebud1949 11-02-2020 01:19 PM

YES and they then tear them up....... There is a Virus around you know
