NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Each year on Thanksgiving weekend, Tennessee's two SEC teams face each other in their last game of the season. The Vols and Commodores will kick off Saturday morning at 11 a.m.
With Vandy's big wins this year and the Vols sitting in a top ten ranking, ticket prices are higher than usual.
Spring Hill Police posted on social media they've taken several calls about a possible scammer selling tickets to the game on Facebook Marketplace. Police said it works because buyers are sending payment before getting the tickets, and then the seller blocks the buyer.
They recommend if you are going to buy tickets this way to pay with a credit card, which offers more protection.
It makes sense fans are out looking for cheaper options. As of Tuesday morning, the cheapest ticket on Ticketmaster was $348.
For those lucky enough to snag a ticket, be prepared to see some changes on Vandy's campus. Construction crews have been working to complete updates to First Bank Stadium.
Journalism is at its best when we can shine a light on an issue that needs more attention. Once again, Hannah McDonald does this beautifully by highlighting the hardships of teens aging out of the foster care system. I learned something new in her reporting and am inspired by the work I AM NEXT is doing to make a difference. I think you will be too!
