Make sure you have your standing in place pass for the "Burn" or you will not be able to stand and have to continually walk around sometimes even in circles.

most likely,

....FOR SALE CHEAP.......

Post by Last Real Burner » Fri Jul 16, 2004 6:40 am

I have extra "Standing Passes" for Sunday's burn, and I have a few extra VIP Passes to the event that includes, free ice and coffee from Center Camp, key to the V.I.P. Porta-Potties, and valet parking for Costco. Any body got extra Front row tickets to Pepe's Opera? Remember to buy you're ticket book early (before Sept.) so you can attend all the Art Exhibits Openings and get 50 free drink tickets included. I have three extra at $125 ea if there are any takers....

That didn't bother me very much, and the live fishes didn't bother me much, but that dead fish on floated at the top did leave the water tasting a little odd. Sure helped the flavor of the powdered electrolite drink, however.

$125 event tickets still available?

Post by rico thunder » Sat Jul 17, 2004 10:20 am

Do you still have the $125 ticket books available? We were thinking of gettign a bunch en masse for Costco, but didn't get motivated early enough. And now they are $150 on burningman.com. If anyone can hook us up for a bunch (like 20 or more!) either whole ticket books or tickets to the opera and the temple burn, Costco will be mighty appreciative.

Oh and a word of advise: Don't bother with the art opening tickets. As a package they are expensive, but what's the point? You can see the art on the playa after the opening anyway.

I have tickets to get INTO THE MAN! They're good on Sunday night, and would sell on ebay for at least 20,000 dollars. I'm willing to trade them for some booty or a Mazda MX-3 though...cause I'm just that generous.
