Munich woman looks for tickets for Luke Mockridge and is immediately ridiculed

The son of cabaret artist and television star Bill Mockridge (77) seems to be extremely popular in the Bavarian capital: While there are still tickets available for Cologne (October 31) or Stuttgart (November 5), Munich residents who missed out have to resort to ticket exchanges. There are plenty of corresponding groups on social networks, primarily on Facebook. The group “Fair Tickets Munich” is particularly popular and now has a good 36,000 members.

Luke Mockridge's show in Munich sold out: Fan is harassed for requesting tickets

When a user contacted them on Tuesday evening (September 10) and expressed her interest in two tickets for Luke Mockridge, malicious comments were not long in coming. “Shouldn't they be in the trash as 'free to give away'?” mocked one user. Another user was even more sharp-tongued, relying on another controversial celebrity for his not-so-serious answer: “Sorry, I just sold them to Gil Ofarim.” Both comments were given more than two dozen likes by other group members.

Others, however, support the woman from Munich, who certainly did not want to start another discussion with her ticket request. “It's questionable why personal opinions are being expressed again. This is not a discussion forum!” complains one user about the sometimes malicious reactions under the post. The lady is ultimately helped: Several Facebook users point out to her that although the tickets will be sold out, some tickets are still available on the secondary market of a well-known provider.

For the comedian himself, however, a show is hanging in the balance, as ruhrnachrichten.de reports: A performance in the town hall in Castrop-Rauxel is threatened with cancellation. The “Haus der Springmaus” in Bonn, founded by Luke Mockridge's father, has already canceled. Sources used: facebook.de, eventim.de, ruhrnachrichten.de
