A standby ticket for something such as the theatre or a plane journey is a cheap ticket that you
buy just before the performance starts or the plane takes off, if there are still some seats left.

Difference between think on, in, of and about:

Think Of/ About. Most of the times you can use both when talking about people.

To think of: when it marks an occurrence in time, for example: "I've just thought of an idea." "If
you can think of a reason why it won't work then call me."

To think about: when it's an idea or preoccupation that is being turned over in someone's mind
a bit more comprehensively, such as: "I was thinking about what you said." or "He was thinking
about her for weeks."

Both Think On and Think In are less used.

To think on: is a bit archaic and it is much close to the meaning of think about. Ex.: Think on
your sins.

To think in: is very easy to differentiate as it is only used with the verb to speak. Ex: Do you
think in Spanish when you speak in English?
