Well, I have my ticket in hand along with the pre and post debate vip materials. I actually put out a FB post asking if any of my friends could hook me up with a ticket. To my surprise, a buddy came through - one that I had no clue could help me out. Apparently the ticket came from Romney's allocated stash of 12 tickets. Thanks Mitt! :D
I was wondering if any other RP supporters were going to be at the pre or post reception parties on campus or inside the O'rena for the debate itself. I first got an email from Eventbrite with the ticket, but then I got another email from the MI GOP saying toss it, we'll provide you the ticket when you check in at the reception. I'd love to meet up with some, um, 'like-minded' folks. My original Eventbrite ticket showed I was going to be in Sec. 4, so it sounds like it might be general seating. I have no idea how they are doing the seating.
