Are there scalpers at Citi field on gameday and is it legal to buy from them?

Thanks!

Just buy them off stubhub and print them at home. You will get tix below face value. Don't ever deal with shady scalpers

I like stub hub, but I doubt it will be < face value. I've gone to 6 games so far, and the same seats are at 150-200% of April and May prices.

People really scalp for Met tix? I thought that happened only back in the 80s.

Sunday night by the afternoon StubHub ran out of Met tickets. Saturday was also a sell out. Get used to it.

Yes, we saw that about the fees. Thanks for everyone's input. We're heading up on Saturday and so will catch a game or two next week. Hubby grew up on Long Island, so it's always a treat to visit.

Never buy from street hustlers/scalpers. Craigslist is a lot safer because you have a paper trail and can generally feel out the guy.
