No they don't...the seller mails the tickets a day or two after the order is made. They don't wait at all in my experience. I've gotten tickets weeks before they were to be used.


Every time I've gotten tickets through stubhub, ticket triangle, etc. they've waited till 3-4 days before the game to mail the tickets.

OP, those tickets don't look anything like mine.

Those look real to me.

There are a couple different styles of tickets...

The ones they print from the ticket office for public purchase look just like that. You don't have anything to worry about.

My wife owns a ticket company (no I'm not putting up pics). She says that they have seen some like that. You need to make sure the hologram in the middle changes when you move it back and forth.

I think emailing and calling the ticket office next week is a good idea though.

FWIW, I think the ones they put on sale when teams return tickets look like that.

I think you are good though. Hope you have a good time in Tuscaloosa except for the game.

I picked up tickets once at the Mississippi State ticket office, and they were generic like that...the thing that is weird is that its a faculty/staff ticket, so I don't know why they would look like that since they aren't for public consumption.

I buy tickets that look just like that every single year, FWIW.

I'm glad to see some people vouching for it. I hope its legit...I wouldn't wish the headache of dealing with a fake and the wasted trip on anybody (well, maybe an Auburn fan).

DA.....I made an assumption they were faculty tickets instead of visitor section tickets. I do not know for sure where the break is for faculty and visitor section.

Ahhhh...okay. That really does make a huge difference in my opinion then, because if its a visitor ticket it just might be fairly generic.
