You don't even need to call the Flames. You can do it yourself on line. In this case with the game is Saskatoon, all the tickets would be generic ticket master tickets like a concert.
One time I did see the scenario you described. The seats behind me at the Dome. People were sitting in the seats and just after the game starts another couple comes along with the same tickets. After visits and conversations from numerous ushers a blue jacket usher comes along, the second couple are escorted out of the Dome. I'm not sure how the mixup occured, but when the second couple had their tickets scanned at the door, the tickets wouldn't scan. But the guy at the door just said go in anyways thinking that his scanner wasn't working or something.
