Bono, Judd sell out in 17 min.
Lincoln Journal Star

InLincoln's latest popularity poll, Bono beat Gorbachev 17 to 40.


Fans hoping to see U2 lead singer Bono and actress Ashley Judd had exactly 17 minutes Friday morning to pick up free tickets for the University of Nebraska-Lincoln's Dec. 1 E.N. Thompson Forum on World Issues.

When Gorbachev spoke in March, the tickets were gone after 40 minutes.

Friday, the line for Bono and Judd started forming at 3 a.m. Friday. The box office opened at 11 a.m. About half of those waiting for tickets were students, said Laura Levy, director of audience development and communications.

Those who didn't get a ticket can still show up Dec. 1 and form a line to fill empty seats. All tickets are void at 6:45, and people will be seated with or without a ticket.

An overflow area will be set up at the Nebraska Union Auditorium. The event also will be broadcast live on the UNL Web site (www.unl.edu), Lincoln cable channel 21, KRNU (90.3 FM) and UNL campus TV.

Dec. 1 is World AIDS Awareness Day.
