Living it up in the T dot

TheStar.com - Rush for cheap tickets crashes Mirvish phone lines

This has got to be the greatest deal for a night out on the town in Toronto I've ever seen. How can you beat $125 Canadian each for the whole package?
I've been trying to get through to book our cheap ass tix to Mamma Mia!, KAMA Classical Indian, The Fairmont Royal York and the Blue Jays game.
Now I know why its been busy all day.

A hotline offering discounted theatre and sports tickets, three-course dinners and hotel rooms shut down temporarily this morning after getting flooded with up to 4,000 calls a minute. Outside the Royal Alexandra Theatre, dozens of people waited in line for up to an hour to get the cut-rate deals.

Its going to suck hard it we get left out in the cold on this deal. Hard indeed.
