You can only use the code if your name is attached to it. ID has to match and at the time of the show. You can only find someone with a ticket from their code and meet them and go when they go. Everyone has be together and go in together and the code holder has to show ID. Birdie On 3/21/14, 3:05 PM, A.W.
