After receiving a brochure for the University of Louisville Kickoff Luncheon Friday, I was going to warn fans to order tickets early.
But it would have already been too late.
Less than an hour after opening the mail, I called the Special Events Office at UofL. The young lady who answered the telephone stated that all 1,400 tickets had already been sold out for the event August 13th at the Marriott Downtown. Other would-be attendees can put their names on a waiting list.
“I expect to be getting a lot of calls from disappointed fans,” she said.
UofL could have saved themselves the cost of the brochure and the mailing.
A great problem to have, sell-outs before events are even announced.
