So unorganized was told doors will open at 6am so walked in at 6:03am there was a huge line already that formed. And that was behind me. Stood in line for 2 hours to be told by staff / security that we needed to leave their were no more tickets. My daughter & I followed directions & left with a mass of people.

I was there this morning and received a ticket to President Obama's farewell speech. The staff and the planning committee did an outstanding job. Once I got inside, the staff was friendly and appeared to want to be at work. Everything flowed very smoothly and peaceful. Hats off to you! Job well done.

Security lied to thousands regarding tickets. Foul!!!! Crash Course in Crowd Control before Tuesday instead of lying to those who followed the proper White House protocol.

Shame on you for breaking your own rules. Those of us that followed your rule & arrived at 6:00 am the time that was said to be strictly enforced did not get Obama tickets. Those who broke your rule and arrived at 4 & 5 am received tickets. Many of us drove 2 hours to get there. Very disappointed in how this was handled.
