Tony, don't just leave your toys on the ground. Don't just buy the first thing that you see. Look around first. Don't just cross the street without looking . It's dangerous.
Good thing. Police arrived and arrested three ticket scalper outside of the stadium. The concert was sold out, but I was able to buy some tickets from a ticket scalper. I hate ticket scalpers. They always resell tickets at a much higher price. Prestigious.
