Today, I treated my out of town family to a surprise opera experience as a belated Christmas present. When we arrived, there were people already in our seats. Upon checking the tickets, I realized that I had purchased them for the following Friday instead of today. FML

I mean, at least you didn’t get them for the Friday before? You can still go.

Maybe I’m just some uncultured swine but I’ll take a pizza and some bowling over Opera any day.

Bribe the usher with a tenor and he’ll seat you in a different aria of the theater.

I'm guessing that the family visiting why be around then.

I used to leaf through my grandparents' opera magazines and read the summary of some of the operas because I was drawn to the pretty costumes. Most of them were rather tragic. Not really my thing.

I guess Christmas isn’t over until the fat lady sings ...or next Friday, whichever comes first

This will be a Christmas worth remembering.

Wait...how did you get past the front doors if your tickets were for a different performance?

That was my thought. Even the most rinkydink crappy little venues have electric scanners these days
