Amazing - I just went to ebay to check, typed in Obama farewell speech ticket. 4 listings already, one for 1000 and one for 4000 (buy it now for 6000).
That's better profit than buying soda with your food stamps!

Misery loves company - they want to be close to the head commiserator...

[RU88]

Good for lining a bird cage, ringing a toilet, or possibly a urinal target.

[ballplayer]

Gimme Dat Ding
The Pipkins

That’s right, That’s right
I’m sad and blue
‘Cause I can’t do the Boogaloo
I’m lost, I’m lost
Can’t do my thing
That’s why I sing

Gimme, Gimme Dat Ding Ah...
Gimme Dat, Gimme Dat
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme Dat
Gimme Dat Ding, Gimme Dat
Gimme, Gimme Dat, Gimme Dat Ding
Gimme Dat, Gimme, Gimme Dat,
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, Dat Ding (Oh Sing it one more time Momma)
Oh, Gimme Dat, Gimme Dat
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme Dat
Gimme Dat Ding, Gimme Dat
Gimme, Gimme Dat, Gimme Dat Ding
Gimme Dat, Gimme, Gimme Dat,
Gimme, Gimme, Gimme, Dat Ding (Ah, you ain’t doin’ that late at night)
Ah, what good’s a metronome
Without a bell for ringing
Not once, can’t anybody ever tell he’s swinging
How can you tell the rythmn written on the bar
How can you ever hope to know where you are?

I hope the speech isn’t interrupted too often with the sound of gunfire.

To be put up on eBay.

Can't help wondering how these people got off work

My guess is that THIS was their work. Most of these people are probably 'scalpers' (can I use that without offending 'native americans'?) who will be selling these tickets now that all the tickets are gone.

It would be funny if they priced them so high no one buys them.

BOOM... there it is.

(Thanks to MOM WITH HOPE).

[generally]

Yes, but it’s a *farewell* speech. He’s leaving!! Happy Day!!

I would have been willing to pay a LOT of money if he’d sold tickets to a farewell speech about 7-1/2 years ago.

[wright2bear]

of course I was being sarcastic...

I'm sure the MSM and snowflakes will be all weepy-eyed.

I didn’t think that so many people would show up to make sure he was leaving and pay for it.

[from occupied ga]

I’d hate to invest in a ticket to a 0 speech. No one I know well enough to venture a guess at their political leaning would give two cents to hear him talk.
