Rolling Stones Tickets and 4/20 sale

[Deleted User] · April 2021

What seems like a lifetime ago I worked at a Department Store (remember them?) back when ticketron was how you got concert tickets and Mick wasn't even middle aged. Stones tickets were going on sale at 9am and we were opening the doors early so the crazed ticket seekers wouldn't trample regular shoppers when the store opened at 10. At 9 a bell rang and we opened the doors then quickly moved out of the way as hundreds of teens swarmed each of the four doorways and made a mad dash to the one escalator that would take them upstairs to the ticket counter. It was a mass of crazed "give me tickets" humanity with only one goal in mind. Some how that image keeps playing in my head as I look forward to the 4/20 sale. LOL
