Concert tickets

It was announced last week that Bruce Springsteen is coming to St. Paul in May, and that tickets would be sold only over the Internet. Tickets went on sale at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, and I was at the Ticketmaster website at 10:59 continually hitting "Refresh" on my browser until the hour struck. I got through right away only to find that all of the tickets were already gone.

Now, check this out.

It seems to me that it is much fairer to force people to stand in line for tickets than to make the tickets generally available to a bunch of eBay scalpers from around the country.
