I've had Bama fans around me every time they've played here and each time it was an exercise in patience. Unfortunately, just before the season, I had two large unexpected expenses totaling almost $10K and in order to get by, along with other cutbacks, I decided to sell my LSU and Bama tickets. I used the MSU-approved marketplace (VividSeats) since MSU probably gets a cut of the fees. However, once you put them up for sale, anyone can buy them. I'm hoping they went to MSU fans, but there's really no way to know. If so, I'm sure that there are plenty of people around me who think I'm an asshole. Right now, there are around 1,000 tickets available for the Egg Bowl on the Marketplace and another 2,000+ on Stubhub. I imagine that many of those will be bought by our red and blue-clad neighbors, just as I bought tickets on Stubhub to the game in Oxford last year. So how does a school help fans who want to sell only to other Bulldogs but live out of state, have a last-minute change of plans, or like me, just need extra cash for the bills. I looked at the UT proposal, but it doesn't really restrict the buyers, only the types of tickets which can be resold. A better option would be an exchange that is only available only to Bulldog Club members and maybe invited guests through their Dog Tag. Bama fans will go to extreme measures to get seats outside their allotment, so this problem won't go away any time soon, but since we like to be technological pioneers in college athletics, let's find a way to keep Bulldogs in as many seats as possible.
