SEC fans beware: counterfeit tickets on the rise
The Southeastern Conference is warning fans to be wary of buying tickets on the secondary market if you're unsure of their authenticity.
Tickets for the Dec. 6 match-up between Alabama and Florida are sold out. With many fans obtaining tickets through various channels on the secondary market, the University of Alabama, the University of Florida and the Southeastern Conference advise buyers to beware of possible counterfeit or stolen tickets.
The SEC and the Georgia Dome will be offering a "Ticket Validation Window" at the main box office of the Georgia Dome beginning at 9 a.m. on Saturday, Dec. 6. The authenticity of the ticket can be confirmed by a box office representative on site.
Buyers of counterfeit tickets risk being denied admission to the Georgia Dome for the game.
The SEC Football Championship Game kicks off at 4 p.m.
