Chance The Rapper Tickets And Other Things That Have Inflated 233%
March 23, 2016 at 4:35 pm
Since Saturday's Fling headliner reveal, campus has been abuzz with all things Chance. Who is he? How does one win a floor pass? And wasn't he that guy who came for a SPEC-trum concert in 2013?
A few grumpsters have noted that yes, he came in Fall 2013 and tickets were just $15. With Fling tickets going for $50, that means the value of seeing Chance the Rapper at Penn has gone up 233% (that's new minus old over old, English majors!). It seems a little crazy, until you consider the plethora of things that have gone up 233% since 2013:
Number of people going to Harvest
Sinkholes on/around campus
Off campus frats/sororities
Dumbness of the names of off campus frats/sororities
Snapchat use
Donald Trump media coverage (According to our Statistics team that we don't actually have, this is a vast underestimate but whatever)
Places in the country where you can be same-sex married
Investigative reporting about "the scene"
Xenophobia in Europe
Number of people afraid of Chipotle
Amy Gutmann's salary
The number of blue (Christmas) balls on Locust
Anxiety about the languishing bee population
Google searches for ways Americans can emigrate to Canada
Zac Efron's abs
Number of coffee shops on campus
Penn squirrel population's aggressiveness
