And MMFA felt compelled to tweet about this because … well, we’re not actually sure. Maybe they’re just bored over there.
@mmfa @CranBoonitz Well, they're not *wrong*.
It's not a good idea, but they're not *wrong*.

@mmfa he's right, though, that's literally the only way to increase your odds, minus killing all other ticket owners.

The graphic says it's advice on increasing your chances, and buying more tickets does just that. What's your point? https://t.co/2A7lvYGS4D

And by the way, for an organization supposedly so well versed in how media outlets work, MMFA sure doesn’t seem to understand how media outlets work.
@anamariecox @mmfa So every guest on a show, represents the company?

@lachlan amazing how @mmfa doesn't understand difference btwn what guest is saying vs what Fox would endorse
