Sometimes Scalpers Are The Only Way You're Gonna Get In
-
The Nashville city council is considering a ticket scalping ban around local concert and sports venues. This isn't against StubHub, it's just against the guys who stand on sidewalks nearby hustling tickets. Is this something that even needs legislation? First, shouldn't people be allowed to sell off or trade tickets they don't need (and I know many if not most of the scalpers are pros and not innocent ticket buyers, but still)? And second, I've noticed that there are fewer and fewer of the "need a ticket?" guys these days because so much of that is now online (and tickets are increasingly just smartphone apps). They're a few years too late. (The Tennessean)
