    In years past, your correct. However, I'm pretty sure this tour is mobile only. Maybe I am wrong (wouldnt be the first time), but I would assume they won't print your tickets at the box office to prevent scalping.

They will be checking tickets whenever you leave to grab a beer and then go back to your seat. Or even to get into your section and seats. If only original person has all of the tickets and the walk in is in another section then shit out of luck without a paper ticket
    most venues hand you a small paper receipt of some sort when you scan your mobile ticket at entry. this solves your issue.

    There is a designated entrance where your phone gets scanned. It’s GA only, then there’s a table inside where they check you off a list & put a wristband on ya. Then you’re  in!
    I get it for GA...but if someone is walking you in and seats are not together. how do I prove that this is my seat? he needs to send screenshot?  the venue gives you something?

    I don't think Ticketmaster counted on people like us. We are game changers.

    In my experience, the GA holder has to walk the other person in and then go to the GA entrance. Obviously not ideal since most who go GA want to get in as early as possible.

    DMB kind of but there is also a lot of Trade Bait for ticket trades which I get frustrated with. But definitely a similar fun community.

    You know who casinos hire to catch cheaters?

    Former cheaters.

    Companies should always look to OCD crazy people that see angles normal people don't see to check how waterproof their systems actually are.

    It's one of the things I excel at.  I am a beast a breaking systems and policies that are supposedly 'unbreakable'.

    They scan your phone at entry. The scanner prints a small receipt that is your proof to get you to your seat.  That’s what happened for Ariana Grande 🥴. Don’t ask. Just assume I’m an amazing mother.

    i think it was tongue in cheek. the irony is, the more OG you are on here just means that you suck more at buying tickets, present company included
