How can you get tickets you ask?
Doing the various ticket quests in game. A good one is Robgoblin Trove which nets 15 tickets and takes 1.5 - 2 min. to run. He is located Northwest of Lakeshore which is Northeast of Sanctuary.

Over at the Robgoblin camp by Lakeshore talk to Boss Biggins, in camp and accept the quest Cruisin' for a bruisin'. Has a pay out of 15 Tickets.

UPDATE: So I am running the Wizard Hildegard 2 dot Dungeon and it is taking me about 4 to 5 min per run for the double bonus of 30 tickets. The exp is nice as I gained a few levels from 9 to 12 and the loots are nice as I upgraded a few peices grinding here. Also, the stars and coins are very nice. here is the break down of what to expect...

Room 1: 5 Brawlers. Each can drop 3 coins. I usually get 9 coins in this room.
Room 2: 8 Wizards. Each can drop 3 coins. I usually get 15 coins here.
Room 3: Boss Mob Wizard Hildegrade and 3 healers. Each healer can drop 2 coins and the Boss drops 23 coins.
Completing the Bonus of finding the spell book will give you 13 stars and 65 coins.
Completing the Dungeon gives you 22 stars and 65 coins.
Speaking to Boss Biggins gives you 30 tickets and 28 coins.

So, my last run I got 30 tickets, 35 stars, and 209 coins.
On top of that I also picked up a Twisting Cobra GI, Rowdy Rumbler Pants, and a Street Scapper Shirt.

Review: This is a great quick 2 dot dungeon to grind during this double ticket weekend. You will gain lots of coinage and items to sell plus 30 tix per run is nice.
