Craziest thing you've done to get into an event

[Glenn's Take]

Went to see Pixies at UK Student Center in 1992 I think. Didn't have tickets and no scalpers. Went to the will call booth to see if they would sell tickets not picked up. No but we noticed their will call system was a bunch of envelopes with names on them and a number. Also weren't checking ID. Found a friend, gave them $20 and told him his name was Jeff Gibson. He went and got our 4 tickets. Thanks Jeff.

Bribed a ticket taker $50 to let us into a Grateful Dead concert at the old Cardinal Stadium. You had to walk up those ramps and the show had already started so there was nobody around to see it.

I snuck into the Willie Nelson concert at the Red Mile years ago when I was a broke college student. My roommate and I jumped the fence thinking we were being wise, but landed behind the ropes next to Willie's bus. Security came after us, but luckily we dissapeared into the crowd and lost them.

We found a friend a few minutes later that pointed out it was a free concert.

One time I paid the agreed upon price for a concert ticket. My heart is still pounding.

Went to the Kentucky vs Florida game day game in 07 without a ticket. Buddy of mine I was with was a plumber at the time. I put one of his button up work shirts with his name on it and grabbed a few wrenches. Walked passed the entry and when they stop me I looked back and said, “urinal second level, hopefully not here long bro.” Kept walking as if he was an inconvenience and got to see the game.

Lied to a Disney employee’s face that my 4 year old was in fact a 2 year old. We were using someone else’s passes/cards and totally misread the entry requirements for little kids. This was before Magic Bands and all that jazz. Saved about $89 bucks though.

So everyone has snuck into an R-rated movie, right? When you were underage so you bought a ticket for a PG movie then snuck into the R movie.

Way back in College , me and another guy flew up to South Bend to see the Charlie Ward USC/Notre Dame game.

Couldn't get in. Rainy day and noticed workers wearing Yellow rain jackets were coming in and out for smoke breaks. We pretty much had given up and were leaving to find a sports bar to watch the game at and saw some people tailgating with some Yellow ones on, so we offered them $ 100 for the pair of jackets and they gladly obliged. We then blended in with some workers out smoking and snuck in behind them as they walked back in.

I always like to think the guys name that we stole the tickets from only had 1 F in it. This was a song a loved off their most recent CD at the time.

Back in college, was at a Jimmy Buffett concert at Cardinal Stadium. Me and friends were way up in the nose bleeds. I went to the very back of the seating to get to the floor. Security stopped me and asked for my ticket, I said “how much does a ticket cost?” Pulling out my wallet. “How much you got” he asked. I gave him$20 and he let me down. I started jumping chairs and moving down the aisle, till I was front row center. Friends had no idea where I was till I told them after the show.

Had to have sex w an ugly girl.

Sold out show. She had tickets.

If the concert sucked i woulda dipped but it was a great show so i had to step up & do the right thing out of guilt.

Best sex SHE ever had so i dont feel so bad.

Never talked to her again.

I saw a post like that once where this guy was trying to sell concert tickets and this is what he posted up there. He goes, “willing to give up two tickets “for the sold-out show tonight. “must be female, age 20 to 25, “and be willing to perform oral sex “for a half hour in my car. “must remove shirt and bra. Your friend can be there for security.” now that guy’s insane and you can tell, ’cause he put that phrase in there. “must remove shirt and bra.” ’cause that implies he’s done this in the past and the girl was like, “hold on! You didn’t say nothing about my shirt and bra coming off.” he’s like, “damn, I gotta remember to put that “in the ad next time. I want to see some titties.” and then he acts like he’s throwing you a bone by putting that phrase in there. “your friend can be there for security.” really? Well, that’s gonna be a tough favor to ask for. “hey, Denise. “yeah, it’s me, Carol. “let me ask you something. “you ever done any security work before? “well, it’s nothing too crazy, “but I’m gonna be blowing this guy “for a half hour in his car, “and I just need you to sit in the back seat “and make sure he doesn’t do anything sketchy. “by the way, you mind holding my shirt and bra? Those will be off!” Now, I went to that concert. I got tickets in advance and I got there and you know what I saw? They were selling extra tickets at the door. Selling extra tickets at the door! Could you imagine blowing a guy for a half hour for sold-out concert tickets and then finding out they’re selling them at the door? That’d be like blowing a guy for a half hour for sold-out concert tickets and then finding out they’re selling ’em at the door. There’s no other way to complete that analogy ’cause that’s the shittiest thing that could ever happen to you.

Thread summary:

Male answer- some crazy story about using a disguise or some subterfuge to get into an event.

Female answer- flashed boobs or gave a sexual favor for admittance..

Back in the early 2000s I snuck into a club up in Rhode Island pretending to be a pyro tech for some Great White show. I didn't what the f I was doing trying to set things up, panicked when security sniffed me out, and got out of there in a hurry. It was insanely packed with people but I was able to sneak out through a back emergency exit as security was coming for me. I think I was able to lock the back exit from the outside so they couldn't chase after me, and then hitched a quick ride to a Firehouse Subs from there. Man, that was a craaaaazy night. The Smokehouse Beef sambo was delish tho.

my dreams are forever haunted

Never seen Great White but I hear their live show is a real barn burner.
