Scalpers Sunday

[jim stone]

I overheard a conversation 'tween scalpers. "One said, see what those fake tickets done to us". They must have been having a bad day. Last week there were some counterfiet tickets sold outside the stadium.

me and my three buddies got 4 tix at $35 a piece and they were pretty good seats.

I can also vouch for the fake ticket rumors. I went to the ECU/USC game a couple weeks ago and we saw some dude getting arrested for selling fake tickets.

One way to look for fake tickets is to make sure the account serial numbers on the seats all match each other.

i was worried about this as well. my buddies and i got ours from a PSL owner who was selling his, and they were missing the hologram that's been on every single one i've ever gotten. we asked him to accompany us to the stadium entrance to be sure. he was a nice guy and i felt bad for the mistrust, but we wanted to be sure. no way i'm blowing fifty bucks on a fake ticket.

Yeah fake ticket rumors can kill those brokers. That is the worst thing for a legit broker to hear.

So what is the best way to spot a fake ticket if you dont really know what a real ticket looks like?

The best thing to do is ask them to walk with you to the entrance. Most people with fake tickets will not accompany you to the entrance.

yeah but it was a great idea at the time

The best thing to do is ask them to walk with you to the entrance. Most people with fake tickets will not accompany you to the entrance.

But the thing is, you have to go thru about a 30 ft long pat down corral, past the gameday program people, past the gameday freebie people, and finally get to the ticket scanners at the turnstile. The scalper isn't even allowed on the official grounds. He'd have plenty of time to get away before you get to the scanner.

I would like to see a ticket scalper who sells fake tix get kicked around in a circle for about thirty minutes and then caned to within an inch of his life.

never had it happen to me but I just think penalties for breaking the law are just not severe enough in this country
