The Frustration of Mandatory Technology for High School Sports Tickets
February 28, 2025 - 01:52
I want to talk about something that really bothers me. It bothers me that one cannot get a ticket to most high school sports events in this state without a smartphone or access to certain technology. This trend has become increasingly prevalent, leaving many fans feeling excluded and frustrated.
Gone are the days when you could simply show up and purchase a ticket at the gate. Instead, schools and athletic programs have adopted digital ticketing systems, often requiring fans to download specific apps or navigate complicated online platforms. While the intention may be to streamline the ticketing process, it inadvertently alienates those who may not be tech-savvy or who prefer traditional methods of purchasing tickets.
This shift raises questions about accessibility and inclusivity in high school sports. Fans of all ages should be able to enjoy games without the added stress of navigating technology. It’s time for schools to reconsider these policies and find a balance that welcomes everyone to the stands.
