I purchased 4 admission tickets + 1. I was unable to use the +1 tickets. After initially, having to change the tickets over, I was provided general admission tickets with no feedback or knowledge of how to use or get the extra ticket that I paid for from this site for the plus one event. I waited online for one of the shows that I was supposed to pay for not knowing that these needed to be booked in advance. I waited online for 40 minutes. Me and my family were denied entrance.. my family, and I were then escorted to an area where we could book an event to be told that all events were booked. I would like to have a refund on the plus one for each of the tickets.
