NASCAR Hall of Fame Ticket Scalping and Counterfeits

The NASCAR Hall of Fame at 400 East Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in Uptown Charlotte and Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord (about 20 miles northeast via I-85) attract scalpers during race weekend events, particularly the Coca-Cola 600 in May. Counterfeit and photocopy tickets are sold outside the speedway on Bruton Smith Boulevard in Concord and near the Hall of Fame on event days. The tickets pass casual visual inspection but fail at barcode scanners.
