|    Twilight Pembroke Mall Charity fiasco    |
|    16 Aug 09 20:13:08    |
      From: pe2goober@dalejrfan.net              http://hamptonroads.com/2009/08/out-twilightand-mall              This event was a complete fiasco for the autograph seeker....My friend was       one of the first 75 in line, and was escorted out by security Saturday.              J mentioned that the agent set up the line rules, and the people who plopped       down 40$ at noon, for a foto op, and $25 for an additional autograph, got to       go to the front first. J had the $25, and never made it to the front, after       being in line since 7 am. the agent never acknowleged the early risers. This       even killed an opportunity for a 12 year old to meet the guy, who was number       one in line.               I told J, the policy should have been first come, first served for the ones       who wanted to donate to charity, the everyone would have went home happy!              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
