The Worst Ticket For U2 - EVER!

No, it’s not seating location - it’s the actual ticket itself. Here is part of my ticket image (slightly altered as well so that no one can try to get in using my ticket). Out of all my U2 tickets since the ZooTV tour, this has got to be the ugliest ticket I have ever [...]
