Could be wrong, but I think this is a combo of Massachusetts re-sell laws combined with the Fenway/MLB venue restrictions.
Mass is different from most states where you can be a secondary market reseller but need to be registered with the regulatory agency. It’s probably a method of protecting the registered re-sellers which is weird since you’re legally only allowed to resell for $2 more than purchase price plus cost of Visa charges etc.
Just thought I’d throw it out there since we cancelled going to these shows at the last minute. Didn’t want to risk getting shut out after reading into state laws. Maybe I’m wrong but that was my findings.
hope everyone lucky enough is going have a great time!
If sellers are aware of this I wonder if there will be some nice panic deals that day
Likely. I got Wrigley N1 Pits for $390 day of two hours before PJ took the stage.

This is so dumb. Thank you to @GlowGirl and others for making a point to let others know about this. Glad I was able to do my buying and selling yesterday.
