Talking with someone who has GA/Pit tickets for tomorrow night and selling them for cheaper than I've seen anywhere else. I do not know them and I'm skeptical if the tickets are real. What does everyone think?

    There are a few red flags - it doesn’t prove it one way or the other but you may wish to investigate…

    1) Static screenshots do not work for this event to my knowledge- there are QR codes that change every few seconds.

    2) My tickets have an alpha-Numeric code at the bottom, not numbers only.

    3) To my knowledge GA tickets were only available through 10club and only in up to 2 tickets.  It’s suspicious there are 3.

    4) GA is always in high demand - why would someone sell GA at a discount.

    There could be explanations for all of these things but I’d be cautious.

    This is not real. Tickets not within the MLB app are not being accepted and the barcodes are literally changing on those tickets every 8 or so seconds to a new unique barcode.

    I would have the person walk you in before paying that’s for sure.

    Any chance you know if you have to enter gate B/Ipswich Street to enter GA, or will any gate work?  Thanks!

    You can use any gate for GA at Fenway, really any gate for any section.

    If you're lining up to go in at doors, its Gate B.
    If you show up later any gate.
