‘Take Off Your Boots’ For U2 Tickets
Here’s a reason for once to like a ticket broker: Online reseller StubHub is offering free tickets to U2 360 shows in select cities — including the next concerts in Anaheim on Friday and Saturday — to those who donate a pair of new or gently used shoes to Soles4Souls, a charity that collects shoes and gives them to the needy around the world. The company has dubbed this project the “Take Off Your Boots Campaign” (all styles of shoes are welcome).
According to Soles4Souls: “Last year, after U2 postponed their tour many fans who purchased tickets through StubHub could not commit to the rescheduled shows. With StubHub’s FanProtect Guarantee policy, these fans were able to return their tickets and receive their money back. Because it is StubHub’s policy not to resell tickets, these returned tickets are now being used to encourage charitable giving through the Take Off Your Boots campaign.”
The company has already done ticket giveaways at Hard Rock cafes in Denver, Seattle and San Francisco. Here’s the remaining schedule (for tickets to the Anaheim, Miami, Philadelphia and East Rutherford shows). Tickets are available while supplies list, and the limit is one pair of tickets per person making a shoe donation:
• Los Angeles (Hard Rock Cafe Hollywood on Hollywood Blvd., 6801 Hollywood Blvd., #105): 3-6 p.m. June 14
• Miami (CocoWalk, 3015 Grand Ave., Coconut Grove, Fla.): Noon to 4 p.m. June 28
• Philadelphia (StubHub Last Minute Services Storefront, 900 Packer Ave.): 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. July 13
• New York City (StubHub Last Minute Services Storefront, 40th and Broadway): 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. July 20
