QAuickcheck Balloon Festival's online offer that the first 250 people to purchase their concert tickets online have a meet-and-greet with Emily to make it a Facebook contest about 2 weeks before the concert?

I purchased my VIP platinum tickets in MAY and was informed that the first 250 people to buy their tickets online would be part of the meet-n-greet.My seats were center-stage (Section C,Row A, Seats 1,2,3) Because of the Facebook last-minute contest, rows AA and BB , and the were put up front, and the "contest winners" were issued laminated tickets to be worn around their necks. OBVIOUSLY, I FEEL THIS EVENT WAS THE BIGGEST RIP-OFF EVER!!! Emily Osment was almost 45 minutes late for the concert. We set in the 100+ degree sun all that time, and I WAS BOILING!
