New Thing 74, New Thing Every Day: Survive Ticketing for a Major Rap Concert

For those who may not know, I started and run an online event ticketing company that is active in 44 states (www.EveryEventGives.com). Last night, ending at 2:00 this morning, we had the biggest, most high profile event with which we have ever been involved. It was probably the biggest Spring Break concert at South Padre Island this year, featuring rapper Lil' Wayne and the band Migos. We sold almost 5000 tickets for around $400,000. Also, since we give $0.50 to charity for every ticket sold to the charity of the event host's choice, we gave almost $2500 to a local youth center. Pretty excited about that. So glad we pulled it off. So glad it is over.
