What would you do for a Chainsmokers ticket?

Desperate times call for desperate measures

Unless you live under a rock, you’ve probably heard by now that BC will finally be having one of the most popular performers to headline at this year’s Plexapalooza (shoutout to CAB for working their magic).

While a handful of students may have enjoyed last year’s performer, (DJ Dillon Francis was it?), it’s safe to say the entire BC student body is going crazy over making sure they see the Chainsmokers live on January 29th.

Yet, fate was decided early yesterday morning when tickets went on sale for all of two minutes.

Yes folks, it only took 120 seconds for 1,800 of your classmates to get their hands on tickets to next weekend’s gig and there are lots of angry fans at BC left with no Friday night plans. Maybe you guys can listen to the music in the parking lot?

The Tab wanted to find out exactly what these desperate people were willing to do to be in the presence of this infamous duo, and if you are one of the lucky ones who has a ticket maybe you’re looking to trade it for someone’s firstborn child?

John Real, junior

Coming from Tom Brady’s biggest fan?

Morgan McCue, junior

That is dedication people.

Johnny Rooney, junior

Any takers on Johnny’s body?

Maria Vetter, junior

No shoes, no Chainsmokers ticket

Jeff Peng, senior

Don’t worry, the Jesuits won’t judge you (or will they?)

Colleen Hyland, junior

She has bigger and better things to do than beg for a Plexapalooza ticket, like study abroad in Amsterdam.

Johnny Teehan, junior

Be careful what you wish for.

Casey McLaughlin, junior

How could you sell your dog dude?

Brett Dodenhoff, junior

Nice of him to spare me the details.

John Miotti, junior

Someone’s suffering from a broken heart.

Mike Ward, junior

Probably the most hated guy at BC right now, with not one but two tickets.

If you’re looking to make some easy money or give these people their dignities back, find these beautiful faces around campus and give them a ticket so they stop selling their arms and legs to hear “Roses” in the sweaty Plex tennis courts.
