Ben Shapiro UConn speech sells out in minutes

STORRS --  Former Breitbart editor Ben Shapiro's speech at UConn sold out within minutes Wednesday afternoon.
Wristbands for the event were supposed to be given out starting at 1 p.m., but organizers said they started handing them out at 11:30 a.m., because the line was so long. Of the event's 500 tickets, 150 non-reserved tickets were gone by about 1:05 p.m.
"I got there around 12, thinking there would be a long line and sure enough, there was," said UConn graduate student Michael Damone.
