[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That sucks. Something sort of similar happened to us where a guy had 4 free tickets and there were 5 of us in the group & my husband did not make the cut. We are still friends with them but we made a note of it for interactions going forward if you know what I mean. Sorry - it sucks. [/quote]

So what is this person with 4 free tickets supposed to do?

Not invite anyone?

Skip over someone but it's ok if it's not your husband?

I don't get it. I don't understand this idea that it's an insult not to be the closest person to x. I bet your husband did not consider this guy his best friend; why isn't it ok for the guy not to consider your husband his bestie? Why is that an insult?[/quote]

NP. If I were the person with the tickets and genuinely wanted to include everyone, I’d suggest to the group that we buy one more ticket and split the cost 5 ways. So okay, the event is no longer totally free, but everyone pays 20% of the price of a ticket, which is still a good deal. I’ve had a similar situation come up with a group of friends, and everyone was happy to handle it this way.[/quote]
I think that this would be an unrealistic solution for most events. The tickets might be insanely expensive, like Hamilton or a sports playoff, or they may be unavailable or they may have assigned seats such that the fifth ticket is nowhere near the other 4.[/quote]
