Since it's a paypal payment, it should be OK. Paypal should help you get your money back if it's not good. They look the exact same as me and my wifes ticket.
I would get a working phone number and name and check it w/ the osu student search???
good luck

I already called the guy and spoke to him right after the auction. And YES he is in the osu system and I have his home address.
And Yes I will be paying via paypal and they do protect the buyer pretty well. |

Aha! So now it is YOU who are suspect. Perhaps someone should warn the seller. Does bubbadu even exist? Is this some sort of bizarre reverse-scam? Fake people paying for real tickets?
Wait a minute - 'BUBBA'du? Are you a closet longhorn? |

HAHAHAHH I was born in Columbus but moved away when I was like 2 years old. ALWAYS loved the Bucks and my younger brother decided to throw away free college to attend tOSU (the games being the biggest reason why). My mom graduated and her whole family is from Ohio. The bubba is just a nickname, and basically FVCK WISCONSIN, TEXAS, MICHIGAN, pretty much in that order. |

Bubba,
Sounds pretty good. Enjot the game, and maybe pay the extra 60 bucks to upgrade the tix. Have fun.

You can fix all of the speculation by having your seller give you the SKU number on the tickets. Call the OSU ticket office and have them run it to check if it is indeed legit. At that time, I would ask if the student has upgraded his ticket to "public" status. This cannot be done day of game and the student must do it. All tickets are now scanned going in to the gate, chances of you getting in without a faculty, staff or student ID will be next to impossible. Unfortunately, you don't deal with just the redcoats at the gate. The university has hired an independent security company to oversee these sorts of things. I hope this helps. Go Bucks! |
