On most occasions a sense of humour is a great help

US speaker Scott Hahn is talking in Dublin in late May. The day-long conference is being organised by the Irish Dominicans.

The conference is being currently advertised.

The following blurb appears on the ad: 

'18-25 yrs, €15.00; 26-35 yrs, €25.00; 36 yrs plus, €40.00; Married Couple, €75.00. One ticket admits two spouses.'

A sense of humour goes a long way at times.

Is this somewhat ageist? 

Does the ad mean that one can bring along two spouses? 

And a more interesting question; can the spouse be of the same gender as the ticket holder? 

How will ticket holder prove identity of spouse?

It could well turn out a fun day.
