Thousands of Argentinian fans of Italian supertenor Luciano Pavarotti were turned away Wednesday because his Aug. 25 performances at the Teatro de Colon and Luna Park in Buenos Aires were sold out within two hours. Pavarotti’s visit has created such a stir that scalpers holding tickets for his appearances are demanding up to $250 for front-row seats priced at $75. Some fans had waited in line two days for tickets to “La Boheme,” which is scheduled for the opera house Aug. 25.
