They send digital tickets that incessantly notify us pathetic game is coming up and even when the parking opens up. Even if they are digital tickets it would help. I agree they are not going back to paper tickets.

The digital only tickets suck.
They do. They are better for getting kids to the game than just show up and swipe a UCard, IMO.

I would make the argument that they are better for STH to show up too. Getting that package in the mail and having the physical tickets is better than getting an email telling you to download the tickets. No excitement there. And no opportunity to provide specialized tickets either (think 100 Year Season tickets from a decade ago).

I still get paper tickets and a parking pass for each game, and it isn't easy. They do accommodate me, but I know they would much prefer digital. The tickets are pretty drab compared to what they used to look like, but that's to be expected.

I liked those big cardboard gamecards they used to have with a different player on the front. I still have a bunch I collected
