Not sure anyone checked but tickets on Stubhub for the UK game went up to like 175 overnight. I assume lot of Kentucky fans want to make the trip down to have a chance to see UK remain undefeated. I should have bought them 2 weeks ago. We are thinking of going up and tailgating and catch up with some old schoolmates for homecoming. Are scalpers still selling printed tickets on Baxter and on the bridge? I just wasn't sure if they went to electronic tickets only.

I was under the impression tickets were all mobile this year, however, we were heading into the stadium for the arky game and there were definitely 2 scalpers that had paper tickets.

They could have been reissued tickets that arky didn't sell and returned or they could have been counterfeit, so tifwiw.

Wait until Friday/Sat morning. Tickets can be immediately transferred. Have to be very quick on the draw. There are Facebook groups but you gotta be quick on them. Worst case scenario, should be able to find a pair on Stubhub Friday afternoon

As far as I know, they're all digital. I don't think I've seen one scalper all season.

I have seen a couple but just with signs. Assuming they allow you to digitally transfer to them.

You can def wait last minute with digital transfer and get deals.

The service charge is ridiculous. Its legalized scalping and gauging

Have never seen what the kickback to the SEC is from Stubhub.

Also curious how much they saved this year not printing tickets.

The take on the resale of tickets is absurd..especially now without printed tickets.

I lived in Colorado when the Rockies played the Red Sox in the World Series and they sold tickets online. It was a disaster as the online sales program kept freezing up with the massive requests at one time. A friend did get through and got 4 tickets. Within an hour he was receiving emails from stub hub and other ticket companies making offers for his seats. So either MLB or the service they used as a ticket vendor was in bed with the scalping companies.

Thanks for the info. I checked some other folks and they told me it's mobile ticket only. Still some have said they are seeing people selling tickets on the bridge for the Arkansas game. I assume the Athletic department was doing mobile only to save money and cut down on the counterfeit tickets. The stubhub fees are ridiculous however. It was 40 dollars a ticket for 190 dollar ticket. Tickets are down to 170 from 200 so it will probably trend downward as the week goes on. I think some season ticket holders are trying to make their money back after the UAB and SC tickets were so cheap.

i bought tix last week on Stubhub and the UK tickets were already that high. And yes they are all mobile. I ended up passing on UK and got some Chas So tickets instead so I could get really nice seats for my kid's first game and not spend $1200.
