Apparently, the Lee County (Ala.) Sheriff's Department came up with an elaborate way to catch more than a dozen deadbeat parents: tell them to show up at a location in Opelika and claim tickets to this year's Auburn-Alabama game.

After all, what self-respecting Alabamian could resist that?

Operation "Iron Snare" didn't round up all the suspects deputies were looking for, but it got quite a few. They mailed out over 140 letters for people with at least $10,000 of unpaid child support.

We'll try to refrain from the multiple jokes we can make over this story. It's not the first of its kind; we've read of it working in New York with Yankees tickets too.

It just goes to prove, in the state of Alabama, they'll do anything, often without thinking about it...in order to get tickets to their version of a holy war.
