Hypothetical: Penn State had entered into a contract with Little Nas X to perform a concert on campus at the end 2019 for convocation week. Thousands of tickets were sold and the stadium had reserved the night for this purpose. A week before the concert, his agent contacted the university and advised he would not be appearing for the concert and offered to book a future date instead. Of course, there was no point in booking a future date because the concert was specifically to celebrate graduation. So the concert was cancelled and a loss was incurred because costs were still incurred but all tickets had to be refunded. Discuss what remedies Penn State should pursue and what the probable outcome will be?
