why are they idiots?

[katvond]

You've posted it twice OP and yes I see your point

[Greenstocking]

How very dare they spend their hard earned dosh on tickets for a once in a lifetime sporting event!

They should be smoking it or pissing it against the wall.

[atswimtwolengths]

Maybe there's a recession for them and they would have bid on £18,000 previously!

[wikolite]

Actually there isn't a recession on and the country has been out of recession for over a year.

[katvond]

They probably can afford the tickets and hopefully won't be going in to debt to get them.

[MonstaMunch]

lol

[worraliberty]

They'll sell them for double the price on Ebay

[diabolo]

Surely people are free to spend their money on what they choose?

As long as they aren't spending the family shopping budget / mortgage money, then it's no different to buying a new car or having a once-in-a-lifetime holiday is it?
