High Stakes Hoops tickets

At 5pm today - I'd be making it $10 to get in, if I was HSH and I'd be confirming that on here if i was JVG.
You'd get to see the last game and a half and One could say 'Here comes all the people that have been working today.'
Maybe 2000 or so.

Has anyone got any horror stories about getting tickets for this event. There has to be plenty because I was advised at the on site ticket booth that many people who showed up for 1 game only, walked away when told they had to pay $30 regardless if its one game or all 4 for the day. I went along for the 4pm game. Started work 1 hour earlier this morning to get off 1 hour earlier and make the 4pm game. I had a good whinge about having to pay $30 for 1 game saying that the organisers are responsible for putting this event on during working hours which meant working people may have been able to catch 1 or 2 games but not the whole day's events. Anyway, I decided I wanted to see the game and parted with $30. I walked into the stadium at 3.50pm to see a game which should start at 4pm, only to find that there was only 2 minutes left of the 1st quarter. I immediately said to myself, stuff this, its bad enough paying $30 for 1 game but paying it for a portion of a game is not on. This is where I gave up and demanded my money back. The manager was called in as the staff in the ticket booth were not authorised to give me a refund. When the manager came out, he did not hesitate to give my my money back indicating that it had been very poorly organised and many people complained.

Although I got my money back, I am still pissed off because of the inconvenience for one (making trip to the Dome for nothing) and also as a fan who wanted to see a few games, I am being held to ransom to pay for a full day pass when I can only fit it one game (thanks to the stupid organisation).

Glad I'm home tomorrow...a basketball feast on One HD...I think it is something like 12 hours straight! Surely this is a first for FTA TV?
