There are differences between facts and opinions. 

Fact:  LSU is awesome.

Opinion: Ohio State is awesome.

The first is proven and is true in all circumstances.  The second is what one individual merely "beleives" to be true.  In fact, it is dead wrong.  It is a wrong opinion (Unless you add to the end "Ohio State is awesome losing big games.  Or "Ohio State is awesome at being overrated."  At that point, it actually stops being an opinion and becomes a fact.)

Circle City Tickets--not only do we sell college football tickets, we offer lessons in truth.

At Circle City Tickets, we do more than just sell the hottest event tickets.   We also take the time to appreciate those finer things in life that bring us all joy.  In no particular order, here are eight things for which Circle City Tickets is especially grateful:

Peyton Manning.  We love him (and not just because he helps us sell Indianapolis Colts tickets.  Seriously).



The All-You-Can-Eat Seafood buffet.  Becuase you can NEVER, EVER have too much seafood.  It is God's precious gift to our stomach's.  It is also the official food of Circle City Tickets.



Roast Duck.  Because Duck joins seafood as part of the holy trinity of delicously awesome gift from heaven foods (with the third member being medium-rare steak).



Family.  We are thankful to spend time with our families (the following is a random picture and not a Circle City Tickets family).



The music of Lifehouse.  Because let's face it, their music is ridiculously good and anyone who thinks otherwise is wrong. 



Golden Retrievers.  So cute.  Not annoying.  Perfect.  The official dog of Circle City Tickets.



The South.  It is awesome.  It is beautiful.  It has the best food.  It has southern accents.  What more could you want in a region?  Nothing.  Nothing at all.  The South is the official region of Circle City Tickets.



SEC Football.  It is the best.  We are thankful that in the midst of Big Ten country we have access to television coverage of the best college football in the nation.



There is more to live than just great event tickets.  But if you are looking for great event tickets, give us a call!


People often ask us at Circle City Tickets if we only sell tickets.  The answer is a resounding NO!  We are not so one dimensional as to only sell tickets!  Do we just have college football tickets or NFL football tickets or concert tickets?  NO! 

At Circle City Tickets, we also sell gift cards and gift certificates. 

Circle City Tickets--not only do we sell tickets, we sell gift cards too.

It was heartbreak for me and other LSU fans.  Arkansas Senior Casey Dick threw a 24-yard touchdown pass on fourth-and-1 with 22 seconds remaining leading to a 31-30 win over LSU last week.




 
It was a great moment for Casey Dick, a senior.  Two weeks before Dick had been benched by Coach Bobby Petrino in favor of Casey Dick’s younger brother, Nathan Dick.  The Freshman Nathan Dick started the game against LSU, leading the Hogs to an early touchdown and a 14-3 lead after the first quarter.  However, the Tigers came storming back and scored 20 unanswered points in the 2nd quarter to give LSU the 23-14 lead at halftime.

 

LSU came out after halftime and quickly scored again going up 30-16.  Arkansas decided to make a switch and put in the senior Casey Dick to try and turn things around and dig out of the 16 point deficit.   LSU would not score again.  Dick quickly got the Hogs on the board in the third quarter when he went deep to Jarius Wright for a 46 yard touchdown. 

 

Arkansas kicked a field goal with 12:33 remaining in the 4th quarter to bring the score to 30-24 LSU.  Neither team was able to put up more points.  We are arrive at the crucial moment with 22 second remaining where instead of running for the first down Dick went deep in the corner of the end zone for the game winning touchdown, a 24 yard completion.  Unbelievable.  Heartbreak.   LSU’s defense was not able to make a stop when they needed it, and two crucial and dumb 15 yard penalties kept the drive alive.

 

You have to feel good for Casey Dick.  Benched as a senior for his younger brother, it is a great story that he was able to come in and lead the Hogs to a win in his last game.

 

It is also a great win for Petrino who is in his first year after former coach Houston Nutt was forced to leave. The Razorbacks will not be going to a bowl game, but a win against rival LSU is a great way to close out his first year. “I guess Arkansas showed today that if you have two Dicks you don’t need Nutt’s,” says Renny Harrison.



 

Despite the outcome, it was a great game.  Frustrating for LSU fans, but truly a great game.  Miss the game?  Don’t miss it again.  Call Circle City Tickets to get your college football tickets.


As we near the 2:30 tip off time for the annual Battle for the Boot between LSU and Arkansas, LSU fans around the country are reminded to be thankful.  On this day after Thanksgiving, the fans of each team in the greatest rivalry game EVER sit down to watch the game (unless they are lucky enough to have tickets).  For me, the game is much more exciting considering a family rivalry that stems from much of my parents' families being in Arkansas and me hailing from Louisiana.

LSU fans in particular have much to be thankful for.  Case in point:

The typical LSU fan:

Circle City Tickets would like to endorse the LSU fans.  Geaux Tigers!

Skully the Skeleton is all dolled up for Thanksgiving! 


Circle City Tickets employees were first introduced to Skully in late September when Stephanie (the office mom) brought him in as a silly Halloween decoration.  As Ryan has previously mentioned, Skully says the following hilarious comments:

"Nice Halloween mask, oh that's your face!  Blaah!"
"Eat some candy would ya?  You're almost as skinny as me!  Blaah!" 
"I'd go inside with you, but I don't have the guts!  Blaah!"
"Hey, wanna hang out some time?  Blaah!" 
"Hey, ya got the time? Oh, look at me, what do I care?  Blaah!"

Now this laughable character has taken on a persona of its own that the Circle City Tickets office has quickly grown attached to.  This month Skully has been sporting some new clothing for the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday.


So, when you come by to pick up your Indianapolis Colts tickets, Indiana Pacers tickets, or even your Lion King tickets, be sure to ask for Skully... he loves visitors!

Contrary to a very popular recent blog post, Circle City Tickets has now announced that they will be accepting mulch as payment for Indiana Pacers tickets. 

"We need more mulch.  This change is by necessity rather than choice.  It is that simple," says Circle City Tickets partner Renny Harrison.  Sources close to Circle City Tickets say that increased mulch is needed to cover an area of lanscaping that has grown weeds due to neglect.




Partner Angelo Peduto agrees, "You know I am pretty sure that mulch is called 'black gold' by the experts. So it makes sense that we would accept it as payment at some time.  Who would have thought 20 years ago that we would accept a piece of plastic as payment?" 



Circle City Tickets will now accept a pile of mulch in exchange for Indiana Pacers tickets.  The specific value of the seats will be directly proportional to the volume of the pile of mulch at a ratio of 1 cubic yard of mulch= 2FEI points (*Fan Enjoyment Index) of Pacers ticket quality.  Unfortunately, FEI points are really low this year for the Indiana Pacers so for (2) get in the door Indiana Pacers tickets it will require approximately this much mulch:



It would take approximately 38 dumptruck loads to get a pair of courtside seats.  We welcome any inquiries as we undergo this transition.

Notes: 
We only accept dark hardwood mulch.  Cedar mulch is not accepted at this time.
We still do not accept peagravel, rocks, sand, shrubbery, volcanic rocks, topsoil, or sod as payment.


There are 16 different species of Penguins.

Circle City Tickets is proud to announce that the Snares Penguin has been declared the cutest and most awesome of all the penguins.  Futher, Circle City Tickets has named the Snares Penguin their unofficial mascot.

 

If you like penguins, buy tickets from Circle City Tickets.  You will be indirectly supporting penguins.  Whether you are wanting Indianapolis Colts tickets or an Indy 500 ticket, buy your tickets from your local ticket broker, Circle City Tickets, and show your support of Rodger the Penguin, our Snares penguin mascot.


Things to remember when buying tickets from a broker. Number one rule is always buy your tickets at CIRCLE CITY TICKETS!


TRL ("Total Request Live"… for you late folks) sadly reached it’s final hour last Sunday on MTV.  The show had reined as the source for all things pop culture for the past decade while sporting the top ten music videos throughout the duration of each show. I sure will miss those 45 seconds of music videos and 45 minutes of fans cheering and screaming!  Good thing the Hills signed on for another season!!


The greatest new show on NBC, My Own Worst Enemy, was cancelled after just four episodes!  Christian Slater stars as an undercover agent with a very black and white split personality.  It's like watching a really good hour long movie every Monday night--I LOVE it!  They will finish out the remainder of this season, but NBC does not plan on signing on for another season. *Big Tear*  Let's just keep our fingers crossed for the ratings!!

Say Goodbye.....



































But who is still around for all the wonderful consumers out there???


That's right... Circle City Tickets!!!  We will be here for all your sporting event tickets, concert tickets, and theatre tickets through this holiday season and BEYOND!  So if you're looking for a company that won't let you down, you should definitely check out Circle City Tickets!


This is a pile of mulch:



This is a pile of cash:



Circle City Tickets accepts the latter as payment.  Circle City tickets DOES NOT ACCEPT MULCH AS PAYMENT.  You might wonder why we think this needs to be said.....trust me.   DO NOT not bring us mulch and expect to walk out with tickets!  And no, increasing the quantity of mulch "on the table" will not change our mind.

*Circle City Tickets also does not accept corn (kernel, on the cob, meal, or otherwise), random hubcaps, prescription medication, puppies, or old lawnmowers.


 In recent blog post I reported that Circle City Tickets is supporting an initiative to upgrade public toilets and are using a portion of the proceeds from ticket sales to support the project.

As it turns out, that is categorically untrue.  Not only does Circle City Tickets not financially support the initiative, management of Circle City Tickets believes it would be a "ridiculous mismanagement of public and private funds."  Partner Angelo Peduto noted, "Yeah, it would be nice [to have luxury public toilets], but we have far more important causes we support.  I think making 5-star luxury rest stop bathrooms would be irresponsible and unfair.  It is crazy beyond absuridty and we have no part in it."

My sources were mistaken and I apologize. 

At Circle City Tickets, we do more than just sell event tickets.  We are actively engaged in social issues and work hard to improve our community.  That is why we have proactively engaged in a campaign to improve public toilets in Indianapolis.  When you purchase Indianapolis Colts tickets, MLB tickets, or any other tickets from Circle City Tickets, you support these causes because 1/1,000,000 of every dollar you spend goes to upgrading public toilets.  These are a few of the projects currently underway:

Who likes a Port o potty?  No one.

 

Gross.   Nothing is worse than this.  We are proposing replacing this:



With these:

 

Comfortable, homey, and unique.  Imagine a row of cottages rather than a row of dirty, stinky, plastic Port o pottys.  Nice.  Indianapolis would rock.

Further, we have all been to the restroom at a rest stop at some point.  We are proposing that Indiana make their rest stops the nicest rest stop bathrooms in the world.  Let's bring a little clas to our great state.

Get rid of this:



And lets do this:



Tourism in Indiana would triple.  At least.

Why are on this crusade?  Because at Circle City Tickets we want Indiana to be the most awesome state with the most awesome city (Indianapolis).  Join us. 


 Items Circle City Tickets does not sell:

Two goats.


A Cattle prod.


A Coffee Filter.

At Circle City Tickets, we specialize in selling premium event tickets; Indianapolis Colts tickets, concert tickets, theater tickets, etc.



Please do not call us looking for two goats.  Ever.....seriously.

Margaret Thatcher was fond of saying, "If my critics saw me walking over the Thames they would say it was because I couldn’t swim.”



At Circle City Tickets, we are fond of saying, "If our critics saw us walking over the White River, they would probably notice the bridge we were using."

Acutally, we never say that.  That is really dumb and I just made it up.  But we do have great tickets for sale for most events! 

The image below was taken from the Voyager IV space probe.  The arrow denotes Bob Sanders' location at the time of the photo.  Yes folks, Bob Sanders is visible from the outer reaches of our solar system.

 

Amazing.  You will probably never have the chance to see Bob Sanders from distant space (though we now know it is possible).  But if you call Circle City Tickets and get some Indianapolis Colts Tickets, you will have the chance to see Bob Sanders up close.  Not space, but still awesome.


 Do you really to spend money on this and have it in your home?



No.  You do not.
Don't waste your money on abstract art.

Buy Indianapolis Colts tickets instead.  You will be glad you did.  Trust me.



Circle City Tickets is your source for Indianapolis Colts tickets.  Have a great time.
