Hello! Are you a fan of the hit blockbuster, "Hamilton?" Over 80,000 users online tried to get tickets for it on February 28, 2016.
gpt
No, I am not. How about you? I did not know it was so popular that people would not get tickets!
human
I'm not a fan yet either, but I am intrigued because it is so popular. The Kennedy Center (which hosted Hamilton for 14 weeks) had to change their entire system just to satisfy peoples' desires for tickets. Pretty crazy! 
gpt
Many members of the Kennedy Center even came away without seats.
human
Yeah that's hard to believe. The highest priced tickets were $625 plus 14% fees for phone and online purchases. I can't imagine paying that for anything. 
gpt
*opens mouth slightly* Yes, I heard that people were looking for lines so that they could purchase tickets.
human
Pretty insane. It seems like the process to get tickets was controversial since there were over 70,000 people interested in tickets, but they could only process 4 - 5,000 per hour. That would be an insanely stressful job. 
gpt
You said you can't imagine spending that much money. Neither can I, but I cannot imagine wasting time to acquire the tickets either! And yes, processing for it seems stressful as well!
human
No kidding! I wouldn't wait outside in bad weather for tickets for sure. Especially since you can often find tickets on second hand marketplaces like Craigslist. 
gpt
*pushes away* One person spent most of her 27th birthday outside of the building to get them. She even pulled an all nighter. That does not sound like my idea of a good birthday.

human
No thanks. I would much rather do other things on my birthday. I guess it would be okay if you got along with the people in line. One patron said it was the "most enjoyable waste of nine hours" she'd ever spent. There are so many better things I could do with nine hours of my time. 
gpt
*eyes widen* Yeah, when one person said that they were crazy for doing it, another person said it was worth it. They might be kidding themselves, if I do say so myself. But who knows, as I am not a Hamilton fan!
human
Are you a fan of going to the movies? I have never even heard of it, but a movie called Trojan Wars had a budget of $15 million dollars and only earned around $300 in the box office. 
gpt
I am not really a fan of the movies. Are you? I kind of lose interest. I prefer series better. I really like Disney movies. Did you know that Sleeping Beauty was a flop and almost caused Disney to shut down their animation studio?
human
*takes a step forward* I had heard that before! I am a fan of the movies, but I don't go very often. Who is your favorite actor? I love Tom Hardy and Tom Hanks. Tom Hanks is actually the highest all-time box office star. 
gpt
I don't really have a favorite actor. Tom Hanks is pretty funny. Have you watched Silence of the Lambs? They were a box office success.
human
*takes a step forward* Yes I have! I have actually read the book too. I find it crazy that a horror movie like that was released on Valentine's Day weekend. 
gpt
*takes a step forward* Yeah, can't imagine thinking it was a good idea saying to a date "Let's go watch this horror movie for Valentine's Day."
human
Yep definitely doesn't sound like a romantic date. I guess people enjoy things we never would. We would pass on waiting hours for tickets and we'd pass on watching gore for a holiday lol
gpt
Though, it might be a memorable Valentines Day so I don't know!
human
I'm not sure where you live, but I've always wondered how area codes work. In NY, the area code is 212 because it was the fastest number to dial on a rotary phone. 
gpt
*body relaxes* That is pretty cool. I remember having a rotary phone! I think it was past its time but my parents were too cheap to replace it. Ha.
