Redditor Took Family Members To Concert After Friends Didn’t Pay For Tickets

If you’ve had the opportunity to attend a major, once-in-a-lifetime musical event in the past couple of years, such as Kendrick Lamar’s or The Weeknd’s concert, you’re probably familiar with the significant dent it can make in your bank account. However, the situation takes a different turn when you have to buy concert tickets for your friends as well. Recently, a Reddit user shared their experience in the AITA community. They were fortunate enough to secure six tickets to see Garth Brooks in Vegas, which, as you might expect, came with a hefty price tag. Starting at $250 per ticket and reaching a staggering $900 for a front-row experience, these tickets were far from cheap. The problem arose when the author’s friends kept delaying their payment for the tickets, leaving them with no other choice but to find someone else willing to cover the financial burden. This situation led to hurt feelings, prompting the AITA community to weigh in and provide moral judgment on the matter.

The story brings attention to the complexities of managing finances and friendships when it comes to shared expenses. Expectations around timely repayment and the impact it can have on relationships vary greatly. Open communication, understanding, and finding mutually agreeable solutions can help navigate these situations and prevent hurt feelings or misunderstandings.

They did not pay for the tickets, the tickets were not theirs, it’s simple as that.

It was a wise decision of OP to sell the tickets.

The friend should have taken care of the situation well.

Only if they had the intention to pay, they would.

It’s disappointing when people show such behavior.
