“Whom do I have to…”
This note arrived today:
Hi. I was wondering how I can get tickets to this year’s ceremony. I am currently a patent examiner at the US Patent and Trademark Office, and I am leaving to come to Boston to attend Harvard Law School. One of Harvard’s draws for me was that it’s the site of the fabulous Ig Nobel Prizes, which I’ve been a big fan of for quite some time. Whom do I have to bribe/kiss up to/sacrifice my first born to in order to secure a seat?
Much thanks,
Daniel
The answer is that one can do all of that, but the simplest thing is to get in touch with the Harvard Box Office on August 5. That’s the day the tickets go on sale.
