Tickets! Get yer Burning Man tickets!

I’m old enough to remember when Burning Man used to sell out in minutes. When they had to invent all kinds of waiting room shenanigans to torment those desperate to get dusty.

Well, now we’re 2 weeks out from the Burn, you can still buy tickets from the Burning Man web site at your choice of either $630.75 $652.83 or $1639 $1696.37 and a Vehicle Pass for $154 $159.39. Or, if you like saving your money, you can buy 566 of the same tickets for half price on Stubhub starting from around $300.

We’re hearing that RV rentals available for Labor Day weekend are already at regular rates in Los Angeles, rather than special Burning Man prices. Will the Bay Area be forced to follow?

Is this a sign that Burning Man is over? Or that the population limit is not being as strictly enforced as it has been in prior years?
