There are two children's theatres in my town. I work in the box office of one of them. Every once in a while we get a phone call from someone thinking they can buy tickets to events at other theatres/venues and normally we just move on from those phone calls no big deal but the phone call I got today...
Me: Hello, thank you for calling xxxxxx, how can I help you?
Woman: Hello, do you have tickets for the event on Saturday night?
Me: I'm sorry, we only have [currently running musical] on Friday nights. Would you be interested in one of those?
Woman: No no no, I need tickets for Saturday night. For the UFC boxing. You're hosting that, right?
Me: Uhhhh ma'am this is a children's theatre. Did you mean to call somewhere else?
Woman: No, I meant to call you. Are you hosting it?
Me: No. We're not associated with that at all, sorry.
Woman:Oh. Well do you think [other children's theatre] might know anything?
Me: I doubt it, but I honestly don't know. Sorry. Good luck.
WHY WOULD A CHILDRENS THEATRE HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH BOXING? WHAT THE ACTUAL CRAP?
I just can't wrap my head around what her thought process must have been.
