Buying a ticket at the stadium

Wait till 12:55 and you will get 50% or more below face for this game.

Agree, I always wait until right before gametime and scalpers are looking to unload.

Tip: Ask someone who is walking in if you can see their ticket before you buy anything, so you know what a legit ticket for the game looks like.

I've always wanted to go down there and get a ticket from a scalper, but my luck would be I would get a fake one. Are there really a lot of people out there selling fake Panther tickets?

I think you will be fine considering there are so many tickets left to be sold.

Darin Gantt seems to think differently.

You shouldn't have a problem. Look for the guys with the I need tickets signs. Never understood that. How come ur selling them but your sign says you need them?

They buy and sell and trade tix. If you have, say, two lowers, you can go up to them and trade for 4 upper level tix. Or vicey versey.

Best advice I have for avoiding a counterfeit ticket is to buy your ticket close to the stadium. If scalpers are within sight of the gates, the usually won't risk selling fake tix. Also, print out a seating guide to B of A stadium so you can see where those seats are because trust me, those guys will LIE to you all day long. Also, make sure you look at the seat numbers so you know all the seats are together.

First of all because they will try to buy tickets for really low from average Joes who aren't really looking to score a profit and then try to sell them for a higher price, and secondly because I'm pretty sure its technically illegal to have a scalping setup. So they can't just put on their sign "Buy tickets here" because then the police would probably be forced to question them. Its sort of one of those assumed things....the police know its going to happen just don't be broadcasting it. Finally, at this point its just a group mentality thing. Everyone does it so if you want to be recognized as selling tickets you do whatever everyone else does. I too wondered the same thing and that's what a good buddy of mine told me.

Furthermore, when buying a ticket from a scalper always look around a little bit. Sometimes you will find average people who just have extra tickets. And great idea by Catman to make sure you aren't getting a fraudulent ticket. Some people are just evil.

Our tailgate crew usually has anywhere from 2-10 extras every week. We usually don't have to walk around and hustle them since our lot is so close to the stadium we have people coming to us. We've been tailgating in the same spot for 16 seasons now and people know where we are.

I might suggest hitting up a couple larger tailgate groups to see if they might have anything.

Personally, we're heading to Charlotte Sunday morning with at least 6 (2 club and 4 uppers) that I know of right now. We'll see if anyone in the group who brought friends needs them first and sell the remainders...

    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
