500 Scammed by Fake Texas Tech Tickets

3rd November 2008 | Category: Sports | Tags: , ,

About 500 Texas Tech supporters missed the thrilling TexasTexas Tech game because they had bought fake tickets (Tech defeated Texas 39-33 with one second to play), according to the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal.

The tickets reportedly looked very much like regular season-ticket stock, but the bar codes didn’t match and showed seats that had already been sold.

The assistant athletic director for ticket operations at Tech was quoted by KCBD News Channel 11 as saying that he had heard that “the counterfeit tickets went for about $200 a piece.”
