Attorney General Jay Nixon has gone to court, filing suit against a Columbia-based ticket broker that has managed to scoop up 2,863 St. Louis Cardinals’ playoff tickets and is selling the tickets for well above face value. Nixon says this is against Missouri law which only allows ticket brokers to re-sell sporting event tickets for face value plus service or handling fees. He says in this case he has learned that $19 bleacher tickets are being sold for $70. Nixon is asking for a temporary restraining order against Show-Me Tickets and is asking the court to order the company to pay restitution and penalties.
