All jokes aside, when I was younger (just out of high school) I used to be a ticket broker. Most call it a ticket scalper, whatever... but I used to pay people to sleep out for a long time to get tickets to popular shows. I even slept out a few times myself, sometimes for several nights.
I think the longest I paid people to sleep out was Paul Mccartney, 1 week. Eric Clapton was the second longest with 5 nights.
This was a long time ago before Ticket Master changed the rules and pretty much put an end to getting tickets this way. We'd always have rows 1 - 5 and each person I paid could get 8 tickets each. I'd stock up and sell them out of the news paper. Made a fucking KILLING doing this for a few years.
