COLUMBUS – The Ohio State Department of Athletics is warning fans about counterfeit tickets to Saturday’s Buckeye-Michigan game.
Department spokesman Jerry Emig says officials have seen “a significant increase in counterfeit tickets in the print-at-home format purchased from non-authorized sources for home football games this season.”
The university says fans should buy tickets only through authorized sources: The Ohio State Athletics Ticket Office, Ticketmaster, and Buckeyes Ticket Exchange.
Anyone who buys a ticket from an unauthorized sources, such as StubHub, Vivid Seats, CraigsList, EBay or a ticket brokers, assume the risk that the tickets are counterfeit or the barcodes have been invalidated. Anyone trying to enter Ohio Stadium with counterfeit or invalid barcodes will be turned away, Emig said.
