There's only problem: people who bought the overpriced tickets won't be able to use them -- at least not to see Jimmy Buffett.
Officials with the Delray concert venue Old School Square say ticket holders will be required to show ID upon entering. If the name on the ID doesn't match the name on the ticket, they'll be sent on their way.
Tickets purchased from third parties display the third party's name.
