So if the IRS wants to play this game, play it.

Form an LLC and deduct not just the cost of the tickets, but the cost of forming the LLC and any costs related to having it, like your accountant's bill for doing your corporate taxes, your cell phone bill, your internet bill, deduct your computer, a portion of your rent or mortgage since you work this business from home, your gas and/or mileage (I think you have to pick one or the other) on any trips related to tickets and events, tailgate supplies (after all, your tailgaters are your potential customers)...basically any and all expenses you can possibly relate to buying and selling tickets.

Yeah keep operating a "business" with minimal losses every year and see how the IRS responds

Hint: DO NOT DO THIS.
