One of the other threads said Pence paid $700 to see the show. Not sure why it was that high..but sheesh...to pay that much and then get humiliated.
Thanks Trump ,for sticking up for him.
It’s a hit show, the scalpers and ticket agents bought up all the seats and sell them at ridiculously high prices. He was nuts to pay that. I assumed it was a courtesy ticket to the incoming Veep.
Republican politicians need to avoid B’way. I could have told him that.
My guess... that it was about at least SOMETHING from the founding days, so even if it was in a hive of lefties, there was something Mike thought might be worth it.
Well one does not throw pearls before swine. Now that Mike has heard the “OINK” he can know more about where to go in future.
That is almost the lowest price seating in the orchestra section. I wanted to know more about Alexander Hamilton and looked at tickets last night, through next Sept/Oct, Orch center $850+, sides and behind row P ~$600. I passed! So glad I did. The reporting is inaccurate. The audience clapped for Pence with scattered boos; as Trump said it was the cast that was churlish.
Pence got the cheap seats. They start at nearly $600 and then you have to add on tax, title, drive out, undercarriage sprayed, aisle usage fee and holding costs. Last time we went to the Paramount in San Antonio, they had the gall to add on an aisle usage fee. What the heck. Like we’re supposed to fly to the seats? Never again.
Why would Pence have gone? It’s a black Hamilton with a “message” which is neon flashing lights warning anyone with two brain cells to stay far, far away.
