People waited online for hours only to find out they were behind tens of thousands of people or heard the news by 3PM that tickets were sold out. \u201cIt was tough to hear as I had promised my wife we would get tickets,\u201d said Stapleton resident Eric Heald. \u201cI had two computers going and was trying to call in, but just no luck.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>Area residents who were lucky enough to get tickets made sure to throw it in the faces of everyone else by posting their fortune on social media. \u201cWhen I had my tickets confirmed, I immediately took a screen shot and posted it on Facebook so everyone would know that I was lucky and they weren\u2019t,\u201d said Stapleton resident Tiffany Bukatz. \u201cIt was such a great feeling.\u201d In fact, so many people were ecstatic about getting their tickets you questioned what was better, Hamilton or the tickets themselves. Alas, after the dust had settled during the hectic and short purchase window, only a handful of over thousands of Stapleton residents who were vying for tickets actually got them. \u201cThere were so many disappointed residents,\u201d said Stapleton Principal HOA President Paul Harris. \u201cWe hate to see that in our utopian community. People need to be happy all the time. I can\u2019t have Stapletonians moping around. It\u2019s bad for home values.\u201d Harris was so distraught about the situation, he made some phone calls, and a large payment out of HOA funds to get Hamilton to come to Stapleton. \u201cThis was something we wanted to do for our community,\u201d said Harris. \u201cPlus, we had the availability at our <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/stapleton-principal-hoa-really-pushing-that-cube-thing\/\" target=\"_blank\">Cube<\/a>. Have you heard about the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/posts\/community-cultural-center-the-cube-to-be-mostly-used-for-second-stapleton-weddings\/\" target=\"_blank\">Cube<\/a>?\u201d Harris says the show will be in Stapleton between April and May for twelve showings, and tickets will be on sale and available only to Stapleton residents. \u201cThis is something we are doing for our residents, so you have to have your Stapleton HOA card to get in to the show,\u201d said Harris. \u201cEssentially, Hamilton made some changes to their schedule where they won\u2019t be spending as much time in Houston, which was obviously a big win for them as well.\u201d After Harris broke the news on twitter, area residents reacted with excitement. \u201cThis is just great news,\u201d said Megan Fecht. \u201cI was really down, and I know, that\u2019s just not Stapleton. But, giving us whatever we want when we want it, that\u2019s Stapleton. So glad the HOA came through.\u201d Resident Lindsay Gill reacted similarly. \u201cOh. My. God! This is awesome! I was considering moving, but now this! Thank you, Stapleton,\u201d exclaimed Gill. Tickets are expected to go on sale in late February. Enjoy the show.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[68],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-7378","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-159","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7378","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7378"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7378\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7802,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7378\/revisions\/7802"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7378"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7378"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7378"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
