Just had my first experience with this last Thursday night at a concert. From the little I've researched, the Bucs are doing it, but sounds like it's optional for now. In the case of the concert I went to, I didn't have a choice. When I purchased them from Ticketmaster, it stated that the whole reason was to cut down on scalping. Or is the ulterior motive to put their competitors out of business?
Thinking about the repercussions from an NFL standpoint, I'd never be able to attend a game if every franchise enacted such a policy. They scanned my credit card at the door and then handed me the tickets from a mobile handheld printer. I don't know how you get around that unless you send a prepaid Visa card along with the tickets if you sold them. And even then it wouldn't have your name on the card.
Thought I'd throw this out for discussion and feedback. On the surface I think this would hurt the NFL. Where is this going and what would be the ramifications of NFL-wide paperless ticket sales if every franchise made it mandatory?
