Taylor Swift' Fearless ticket sales - is this possible/probable?

[no one important]

Could they actually sell thousands of tickets this fast?

Record sellouts

Tickets for the first shows for the Fearless Tour went on sale in
early February 2009 and sold-out almost instantly. On February 6,
2009, tickets went on sale for the May 22 date at Los Angeles' Staples
Center and sold out in two minutes. Tickets for several dates and
venues, including Madison Square Garden, went on sale the following
week and sold out in a record of one minute. Swift did something that
only a few music stars have done in Fresno that is selling out the
Save Mart Center in "10 minutes or less" says Steve Tadlock.

It's the perfect PR ploy for promoters/managers: buy up blocks
of tickets to create demand, then sell them at a lower price to the
resellers.
