UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- Nittany Lion football fans are being advised by Penn State Intercollegiate Athletics to be cautious of counterfeit tickets, including the print-at-home format and illegally reproduced single-game tickets purchased from nonauthorized sources, for the upcoming Ohio State game.
Penn State officials have notified law enforcement of counterfeit tickets being in the marketplace.
Due to these incidents and the tremendous interest in the Sept. 29 clash between No. 10/9 Penn State and No. 4 Ohio State, Intercollegiate Athletics encourages fans buying tickets to only purchase them through Penn State authorized sources.
The Penn State Athletic Ticket Office and Ticketmaster are the only authorized sources for tickets to Nittany Lion athletic home events. Fans purchasing tickets from unauthorized sources (including StubHub, Vivid Seats, Craigslist, eBay, and ticket brokers) assume the risk that tickets purchased are counterfeit or the barcodes have been invalidated.
Anyone attempting to enter Beaver Stadium with a counterfeit or invalid barcode on their ticket will be denied entry.
The Nittany Lions and Buckeyes will meet in the Penn State White Out game at 7:30 p.m. on Sept. 29.
This week, Penn State (3-0) begins Big Ten Conference play at Illinois (2-1) on Friday at 9 p.m. ET. The game will air on FS1, GoPSUsports.com, and the Penn State Sports Network (7:30 p.m. ET airtime).
A limited number of single-game tickets for the 2018 season presented by PSECU are available for the Maryland game. Verified resale tickets are available for all five remaining home games via ticketmaster.com.
