Postman's child made a great comment. All reunion tours should be called 'The Great 401K Tour of.....' Honestly what have they put out in the last twenty years? They all have gone on to solo careers.
Anyways, the concert was alright. It would have been better if the seats in front of us weren't scalped tickets. PC got advance sales tixs for being a season tix holder for A's games. $80 seats. You get the idea. So, the people who sat in front of us bought these tix for less than face value. Whatever, the problem was that they had personal alcohol, and pot. The pot doesn't but me so much. It bugs J. She gets more uptight about stuff like that. So this couple were basically a drunken mess.
We had put up with the pot and the usher warning them and all that, but towards the end of the concert the girl gets up. At this point J gets fed up and taps the girl twice on the shoulder and asks her to sit down. She starts yelling that everyone else is standing and to 'fuck off' J gets mad and heads over to find security. I head out with her. We find a frunpy looking guest services woman, who blows us off repeatedly. Our usher had gone to use the restroom, but no one else helped him out. Frumpy tells us to go back to our seats, and the usher was made aware what was going on. We go back to our seats and the couple act more obnoxious thinking they got away with it.
Again, J asks the girl to sit down and she still swears at her. I respond back to the girl that not everyone is standing. She gets in my face and tells me to fuck off. I put my hand up to my head and ask her not to yell in my face. She slaps my hand down. At this point J says we are pressing charges against this girl. Again we leave our seats and find the frumpy old bat. This time, we find security also. Security have no idea who the frumpy is, these are totally different companies. So they notify OPD that we want to press charges. We head back to our seats, and again, the couple act like they won. But when OPD came everyone in the front section took off. The pot smokers got scared. So OPD thought we were causing trouble, we had to explain the situation. So we all went down to the walkways to talk and give our statements. The man sitting behind me told Frumpy, he saw the girl hit me. She sends him on his way. Even after J told her to keep that man, as our witness.
OPD tells me that I can press charges, but the girl is going to press charges against me for kicking her ass. I did no such thing. I was sitting. I couldn't kick her ass from my position. Because frumpy let the witness go, I could only demand that the couple be expelled from the concert. It didn't matter the concert was over anyways, and OPD did not physically expel them, so I have no idea if they truly left the arena.
After all this. J is still mad and she makes frumpy find her superior and files a complaint. J wants a refund on the monies spent. I don't know how that will go. Frumpy pissed me off, because her excuse was that she couldn't hear. She forgot her earplugs. Hey do what anyone else would do. Pay $10 for a pair at the show. Stupid fool. That is no excuse knowing what your job is. Guest services at a concert, of course you bring ear plugs, in fact you bring extras in case something happens, or you find someone else with an extra pair.
I told Goof what happened, and he got very mad at PC and A. He felt with those two big guys they should have not let this happen. A and PC should have stood up for me, not J. Yea, Goof is very protective.
