Spent $80 on a fancy speed dating event and got zero matches

I paid $80 for a speed dating thing at a bar downtown last Friday, thinking it would be better than apps. Turns out the ratio was way off, like 20 guys and 8 women, and I barely got to talk to anyone. Has anyone else tried those paid events and felt totally ripped off?

Everything good now costs a fortune and delivers half what it promises.

Yeah but I wouldn't say the ratio was off, more like they oversold tickets to guys without enough women signing up. I went to one of these last year and same thing happened. They let in way too many men and then acted surprised nobody got matches. The whole thing felt like a cash grab from single people looking for a shortcut.
