Former President Bill Clinton will speak at the Ralston Arena for a 90-­minute appearance on March 20.

Tickets will range from $49 for standing-room access to $500 for front-row “meet and greet” seats that come with the opportunity for a photograph with the 42nd president.

Arena General Manager Paul Hendrickson said he sought to book Clinton, 67, not for politics but for entertainment.

Hendrickson said the event is not connected to Hillary Clinton's possible 2016 run for president, which would have her courting caucus voters in nearby Iowa.

Marta and I can't go. We have tickets to Gordon Lightfoot that night. We did go see Bill in Dec. 2000. The SCOTUS hadn't appointed W yet.
