Buying Stubhub tickets last minute
Sep 21, 2017, 3:18 PM
|
|
Has anyone bought Clemson tickets on Stubhub right before game time and tried to enter the stadium by scanning the bar code from your phone? I did this once but the gate staff person was reluctant to do it. I looked for an official stadium policy but can't find one.

I've had good results w them if I print them out. Of course for you in this case that will probably mean either buying and extra seat for the printer or carrying it back to your car.

Yes, non-availability of a printer is the issue! It definitely works to scan from a phone screen without a problem, but it made me nervous when the gate person said it might not be allowed.

Dont do it

It's a scam. I too got the "reluctant" look from the staff person when showing him my phone. He called over a security officer who then took me behind the south upper deck stands. That the last thing I remember before waking up in a ditch in Seneca (right next to lot 1). It was a bad weekend to say the least.

I haven't done that, but Clemson offers tickets on your phone now through your online account. I started just "reprinting" them and it sends an email to my phone with the ticket. I've done it for both games this year, so I don't have to deal with a physical ticket (Just make sure your phone is fully charged before you head to the game).
Haven't had any dirty looks at gate 5, but I'm sure that depends on the person scanning tickets.

Can I trust the guys that have cardboard signs that say "I need tix" even though they have a wad of tickets in their other hand? Asking for a friend...

Enter gate with the youngest looking attendant. They silver hairs don't trust that interweb.

The Atlanta Falcons only take tickets on smart phones - no printed tickets.

I typically print them out at the Clemson Library. And no you don't need to be a student. You can purchase a print card with cash at a kiosk in the library and print your ticket. Hell, I've even purchased them on a library computer.
But yes, I have had success with good prices. Especially if you need a single. 1.5-2 hours before kickoff.
I don't feel like I should share this, but how many singles can there actually be. I'd rather pass along my secret than find out a counterfeiter screwed you.
Hope this helps.

Fun story...
The last guy I gave this tip to was before Louisville at home last year.
I was panicking to get my dad in after a counterfeit fiasco, and I don't know the other guy's reasons, but he was also in a panic for a single.
After we each retrieved our tickets from the printer, working together to figure it out, he was so appreciative he handed us 4 mini bottles of makers mark.
Not a bad day. Not even a little.
So I'm passing it on. Karma and such.

The Louisville home game last year is the one I risked buying on Stubhub mobile app and scanning from my phone screen at the gate without knowing whether it would work. I had actually thought about the library for printing if necessary, so thanks for confirming you've done it successfully!
