One instance per section per year over 8 home games is a non-problem if that's the case. That's roughly 50 counterfeits per 600,000 tickets sold but if it is a major problem recently that is so problematic it needed attention then it's news to me

But the thing is, of those 8 home games, there are typically only one or two that have high enough of a demand to make counterfeiting an attractive perspective.

I know that every season that I have had my tickets, the LSU, UGA and Bama games always seem to have 2 extra people per row of seats. Now I can't say those people came in on fake tickets, maybe they had a seat in the upper deck and didn't want to go up there. However, when it looks like every seat upstairs is full, and the ramps are full, and you still have a couple of extra people per row in the lower bowl, they got in somehow, and I can't believe Auburn oversells seats, because I have never seen an Auburn ticket or area designated as SRO.
