thats fucked up they charge it at the box office still, venues around me let you skip the fees which is such a major help. plus they dont get that fee money anyways. That box office must literally just buy the ticketmaster ticket for you. you called and checked that they still charge the fee at the box office?
the worst part is the box office hours for most places. if i didnt work downtown it could be almost impossible to get a ticket from there.
