Wild warn fans of counterfeit tickets

The Minnesota Wild hockey team is warning fans about fake tickets.

The team says about 50 fans bought Wild tickets on Craigslist over the past month. When those fans got to the games they learned the tickets were counterfeit.

KSTP-TV reports the team is working with several Twin Cities police departments.

The Wild say the only places fans are guaranteed to get legitimate tickets are the box office, Ticketmaster and the team's website.
