We now have the first acknowledgment from their side that the Clintons vastly overestimated their personal popularity and the public’s interest in hearing them talk about themselves.
The Clintons and their stadium tour promoter are officially responding to the public’s refusal to show up in sufficient numbers for them to avoid embarrassment (and financial loss) at the level of ticket prices that seemed realistic when the tour was announced only two months ago. The UK Daily Mail noticed this offer on Groupon:

I might go if there was a free buffet and open bar to get drunk.
I wouldn’t see them even if it was free. They’re not entertaining, period.
Want to pack them in, advertise a hangin!
If they could sell tickets to see them both taken away in handcuffs, there is not a big enough venue on the planet to accommodate the crowd. No telling how much people would pay. Millions would travel across the country. Untold numbers would travel internationally. Would be the biggest media spectacle of all time.
Even scarier is that it indicates “selling fast” and that 290+ have been bought. Probably as Christmas “gag” gifts. I’d gag.
Apparently, there were a lot of empty seats. If I see pics, I will capture one and post it.
In Economics, it’s called “inflexible demand,” a fixed level of need/want for a particular product or service that is not affected by changes in supply. To my delight, that inflexible demand level is near zero, which means the Clintons will have to subpoena attendees.
Odds are the Clintons will get paid no matter what. It’s the promoters that are going to take a bath, which is why they are desperately trying to recoup their losses. Can’t say that I feel sorry for them.
Just HOW MUCH are they getting paid for this circus?? Are they JUST getting a portion of the ticket ales?? NOT VERY DAMN LIKELY!
I got $5 each for my two pit seats to the Clintonapalooza on StubHub.
But with the fees, I actually lost $.
MAY 4th?? MAY???? Is this a JOKE?? WHO sells tickets 7 months in advance on GROUPON?
Losing to 0 in 2008 was a forgiveable sin. Losing to Donald Trump in 2016 wasn’t.
Oh c'mon on. Just imagine if a thousand of us went and heckled her....and got paid to do it.
I would go if I could heckle, them. Actually, interrogating them with 120VAC might be fun.
Maybe she needs to reach out to the Russians for help, I mean, if they can get Trump elected, they surely could get people to buy up some seats!
They insist on being the baby at every christening and the bride at every wedding. Their narcissism and greed knows no bounds.
15,000 empty seats faced the Clintons; curtains cut the arena in half to diminish the emptiness.
3,300 tickets were sold for a venue that holds 19,800 (16.6% of capacity). AND GET THIS:
$53 (Canadian) was the going rate, but "one ticket was hawked at $6.55 in the final minutes before the event."
Typical Trump overflow rally.
