As the Bears keep winning and a playoff berths seems more possible, more fans are looking for tickets to home games. This is especially true for this Sunday's matchup with the Eagles -- people are naturally curious as to what all this Michael Vick hype is all about.

Today's Sun-Times has a lengthy article about counterfeit tickets that are popping up around the Chicago area, particularly via sales on Craigslist.

Above is an example, from the Sun-Times article, of what some counterfeit tickets look like. Taking a look at them, it's pretty easy to tell what's fake and what's real. If you're looking to go to the game Sunday and don't have tickets, as of 8:30 this morning tickets were available here, at the official Ticketmaster page for the game, at face value.

Be careful out there. And go Bears.
