"Transitioning our tickets to all digital will increase safety and convenience for our fans," Scott Walcoff, senior associate athletic director of external operations, said. "There is an industry-wide transition to digital tickets, especially in today's current climate with many uncertainties surrounding COVID-19.

By taking advantage of the mobile option, our fans will also have more contactless ticket management flexibility including forwarding tickets to family and friends at any time, as well as have more peace of mind with a reduced risk of lost, stolen, or forgotten tickets."
