For the first time in Patriots history: no printed tickets

I only support this if they institute a FanID system that just incidentally will make it harder for certain types of fans to attend.

You're exaggerating, programs aren't $20. Apparently lanyard ticket holders didn't rake in enough dough, though.

"I'm wondering if Super Bowl tickets will be digital. That would be a damn shame," said the crusty old living-in-the-past grandpa who happens to value tangible reminders of special life experiences.

They’ve got to be pretty close to $20 I would think. I haven’t bought one for years.

I think they're still $5 but not sure -- certainly not more than $10.

I would want something game specific or are the programs that way?

Yes, they are game-specific, with rosters, player photos and depth charts for both teams. Teams and game date are printed on the cover.

I hate it. I liked having my patriots lanyard and easy access to the ticket. Ticket lines suck already. Now everyone will be fumbling with their phones trying to get into the stadium. Its gonna be a disaster.

Nevermind when it gets cold and people are wearing all that cold gear. This is a terrible initiative.

You’re going to be surprised how well it works. They use it at large festivals like EDC or Coachella that have literally 120-150k people going through the gate in a two hour window. Much larger numbers then a foodball game, and it works flawlessly

Is it too much to hope they spend the money saved from printing tickets and put it into the annual season ticket holder box stuff we get?

Why send a box at all if your not sending tix?
