DETROIT - Charlie Sheen was heckled, booed and eventually abandoned by the crowd at his inaugural stage show, with many of the audience members chanting "refund" and heading for the exits even before the show abruptly ended.
Winning? Not on opening night. The first stop on Sheen's "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not an Option" 20-city variety show started Saturday night with thunderous applause but ended 70 minutes later. In between, Sheen tried to appease his audience with rants, a rapper and a question and answer session, ultimately concluding the first show was "an experiment."

Thousands of tickets people bought are being resold on sites like StubHub.com for a fraction of their original cost. As of Friday afternoon, tickets for the main floor of the Detroit show, originally $52, were going for as little as $14 each on StubHub.
When the goddesses locked lips in front of him, Sheen smirked. He had the crowd in the palm of his hand. "I don't see a single empty seat," he said.
That quickly changed. As the show bogged down, an audience member booed, prompting Sheen to reply, "I've already got your money, dude."
Things only got worse.
"Tonight's an experiment," he said.
For some, it was an expensive experiment
After one of the sustained booing moments, Sheen tried to calm the crowd. "Come on, guys. You paid to see me," he said. "... You gave me your hard-earned money without knowing what this (expletive) show was about. I'm here now ... and I'm willing to open up."

Yea, doesn't have anything to do with the fact that Detroit is a cesspool and going downtown at night is nearly suicidal.
It's that Charlie Sheen sucks that bad.
Wait, it could just be a combination of both now that I think about it.
theres nothing else but drugs and guns to buy in those ruins, he shouldnt complain. not every day you can see a crappy show with a sexy little mama and not get shot

They paid him no matter how the show turned out.
I'd say he's winning all the way to the Bank and laughing at the trolls who help make him more popular in the media.
Every time a post is made about him he banks another wad of cash.
