Truth be told, I am working to broker a deal with the ticket office to scoop up whatever remaining tickets there are so I can bring them all to the gate with me to have scanned. So far, they've declined my "interesting trade" offer of Jon Voigt's undershirt.
If the gates won't scan unoccupied tickets, then I am also working on assembling an army of life-sized dolls to take with me to the games. One issue: I can't find any said dolls that don't have mouths and legs open wide. I suppose there is a silver lining to this - I have PLENTY of booze smuggling opportunities. Security may confiscate the oral contraband, but the crotch is way off limits.
