Batman Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Mike Tice scalped Super Bowl tickets http://www.sportsline.com/nfl/story/8270404 I can see why Randy didn't listen to this guy. I know he is the lowest paid Head Coach but can't he sell Amway or something? $2,500 for a $500 ticket then the broker sells it to Joe Shmo for $5,000 what a great gig. Oh Well I have to stick to watching on TV I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bet the parking lot was full of some pissed off people that day. Just think, they paid all that money for tickets, probably flew across the country, took off work, rented a car, got a hotel room for a night or two, only to go there and find out they got ripped off. %$%!$%^!^@&@& That pisses me off just thinking about it and it didn't even happen to me!!!!!

spirit of radio Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 On the bright side for the Vikes they just signed Fred Smoot to a long term contract. He is arguably the best cover corner in all of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anagramking Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 Well, the Cubs scalp their own tickets here in Chicago. Sports are becoming a business comp affair, aren't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indica Posted March 10, 2005 Share Posted March 10, 2005 There's nothing wrong with going to a game and buying tickets in the parking lot. If you get them under face value then that's a bonus. Sometimes the day of the show is the best way to go as far as buying tickets. When it's 2 degrees outside it's not hard to find good deals for just about any game. There always winners and losers in every game. The key is learning from mistakes and capitalizing on what you learn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man that would suck I would be hunting that person down forsure. Getting scalped tickets under or at face valve is one thing. But when you get alotted tickets and have to sign a non-resale contract is something else. The NFL does a pretty good job of cracking down on rule breakers but I am sure this is happing in every NFl locker room that not playing in the Superbowl. Here in new England the Season ticket holders are upset over how the ticket lottery was handled. And I am not a Browns fan but I do wish them well.
