Our Contribution to BYU Football
So about two weeks ago tickets went on sale for the Las Vegas Bowl. They sold out very quickly. Aaron and I got on early in the morning and purchased 4 tickets. We got on Ebay, Craigslist, etc. and tickets were selling for a pretty high price so we didn't mind paying $75 dollars each because we thought we could sell them and turn a profit. So as it turns out, no one from UCLA wants to go to the bowl game. Why? because they fired their coach, injured their players, went 6-6 this season, many reasons. So BYU buys a ton of tickets from UCLA, now there is a surplus of tickets. All of the sudden people are selling their tickets way below face value and no one is bidding on Ebay. I start to panic, big time. We could not afford to lose our money on this. Prices keep going down , every day. This week we started to get desperate. So yesterday I bought 2 brightly colored posters and wrote BYU tickets, must sell and my number. 3 minutes later a girl called and bought all 4. It was amazing. Sure we lost some money but not as much as we could have. Aaron says it is our contribution to BYU and we need not worry about making one again for awhile. You are welcome Bronco!
