New Tiger fan a sucker!

Boy am I a sucker. First year season tix holder. Wife went to Clemson and I am a Buckeye fan but have gone "All in" as you guys say, with the Tigers. Put 2 tix for next weeks game on Tigernet that we couldnt use. Prices were crazy and I felt bad about even asking for 2x face. Plenty of takers for that price. Of course the day after I sell them, the buyer (DZFulmer)puts them right back up there for $100 more each. The American Dream, huh. I assume a student trying to pay for "living expenses". I guess I am getting old since this pisses me off! Should I assume that this is a common practice? My worry is now there will be some Coot sitting in them. Lesson learned. Sorry to my Season tix holder neighbors.

doing the same thing you did. You are both making money off of the tickets.
Now - if you had sold them at close to face to someone who said they were going to use them - then yeah I'd be a little mad.

years we have always bought our tickets/parking pass off of tiger tickets for face value. I've seen tickets go from ebay to tiger tickets rather quickly. Maybe next time put them on the Donor Board under tickets first...they'll get scooped by someone who will use them.

Dumb on your part. If he buys them he has a right to make some money, it's just good business.

couldn't use them? This seems to be the problem with a lot of us "fans". We are willing to seel our tickets to "mon-Tiger fans" just because we can make a buck!! DON'T DO IT!!!
