Their dreams of the Iron Bowl turned into a reality behind iron bars.

What were supposed to be coveted tickets to the 2011 Alabama-Auburn football matchup turned out to be a trip to jail for at least a dozen deadbeat parents arrested Friday by the Lee County Sheriff’s Office as part of operation Iron Snare.

One by one, suspects who were wanted by authorities for a total of more than $270,000 worth of unpaid child support were arrested after arriving at a festive, football-themed location on Second Avenue in Opelika, complete with balloons, streamers and highlights of the 2010 Iron Bowl being shown.

I love these type of stings. :laugh2:

They weren't happy very long. I can't believe someone wouldn't pay their child support. It's your child, your own blood!

Some of those arrested as part of Iron Snare stopped in on their lunch breaks to claim what they thought were football tickets, only to be handcuffed and escorted out to a waiting bus as tunes like “Walk This Way” and “Another One Bites the Dust” were piped over a sound system.

My favorite part is the guy at the end asking if he still gets the tickets.

My favorite part was when they replied no. :laugh2:

The sad reality of the whole thing is that probably most of those people were planning on selling the tickets on eBay or Craigslist and pocket the money...

More likely to see Shawn Kemp. :laugh2:

Wow, that's pretty funny to see the emotion go from peak to valley.

On top of that, they cuffed one of the dudes with bright pink cuffs.

How much you want to bet these people bring about law suits for humiliation and what not.

How about the humiliation lawsuits the kids should be able to bring for having to wear the same set of clothes a few school years in a row?
