Did you get that e-mail from Adam, too? Pea said "a guest". :?
I have spoken with Adam and the impression that I got is that one could have as many tickets as their little heart desires. I didn't ask if there was a max or anything, but I didn't get the impression it was capped at person plus one guest.
Holy Crap! You changed your mind and started thinking it might be worth taking a vacation day and sitting on hard seats for an afternoon?

What happened?

But how could Adam have guessed that we'd try to stack the audience with BBs? :mrgreen:
I think you are correct, Marley. 50/50 probably wouldn't be such a great thing to promote. Of course, his job is to fill the audience first, just so they can do the show. If they can have some cute little promo out of it, all the better.

They probably figure if people are going to take the day off and go sit there, they should at least be able to bring people along. Who knows though, like I said I didn't ask specifically, but I got the impression you could have multiple tickets and that you could specify the number.
I don't think they care about what one 'should' get in return unless BAM is 'in need'. They have told hot-seaters how many guests they could have if they had too many people 'confirmed' to be in the audience. If they are to the point of having to pay the audience members, then, heck yes, they will lift any limit that might have been sent.

Who? I think there might be a ban on rainbow brite donkey-corns (uni-donkeys?) in the studio. I didn't ask though. :P

That one is much better than the other one, but that could be because you can only see his face...

"Clear as a bell" is certainly a real saying.... I just capitalized the B to make a bit of a pun on the situation.....

You are correct. My bad. I assumed.

Why did you speak with him about it if not to let him know your interest in coming?

I'll have to *cough, cough* back up LB on this one, we use "clear as a bell" as a saying all the time.

And are you going to the taping?

Another vote for 'clear as a bell' being a common phrase. Then again, my dad is from Illinois and I am steeped in Dadisms.....

I think it comes from how clear the tone is from a bell when it's cleanly struck.

And, ha, "Bell" I got the pun. You're never going to give up, are you, lb?
Screw you guys, I'm going home.

A tad touchy, are we?

I spoke to him because I was interested in it. I found out I could not attend the dates. I then was interested in other's having the opportunity to do so and I did not want to overstep and give out a phone number without permission so I spoke with him again.

You have no need to do anything, nor did I say you needed to tell me why you called him. I just asked. You are free to decline.

You might want to get your panties out of the twist they are in but you don't need to.

No twist here, sister...just responding to your post with some of the snarkiness that I often see from you. If you don't like it, then maybe now you know how others feel when they read your posts.

I'm in a great mood...the sun is shining, the birds are chirping, and no game show has done me wrong this week...
