For the young at heart, it's still enjoyable to flip through a stack of stubs from the Oats years and remember the games. Guess we can scroll a website and get the same feeling...

Forgot we had entered the full digital age since the last time we were at Alumni 😂 I'll miss getting that big stack of tickets in the mail.

Brock and Sischo have both played for their respective teams for over 11 years

As an adult I don't care about paper tickets or digital. But I would be heart broken as a child. I loved collecting ticket stubs from sporting events I went to

Let's go Brennan (Close enough)

Decided to take a look to see how efficient it would be. Visited the NFTA Metro website and this is what they gave for their trip planner... NFTA - Page Not Found So I did some googling and found this which is linked from the NFTA website: From University At Buffalo to Keybank Center (Arena Keybank) by Bus or Light Rail (moovitapp.com) If I want to leave at 10:40 AM from the Amherst Campus, I will get to the arena at 12:10 PM at the earliest. So, a 90 minute trip, one way. Or if going by car/bus it is a 23 minute trip. I don't think Students will travel by transit and waste three hours of their day commuting. There is a reason other schools have invested in running their own shuttles. They know that you can't depend on students taking public transit. Temple Students can take public transit from their dorms to games but the school runs shuttles for them: Temple Football Game Day Shuttles | Calendar of Events Pitt has public transit to take students to football games. Yet they still offer shuttle busses directly for students: Heinz Field Shuttle | Parking, Transportation & Services | University of Pittsburgh You can not rely on public transit if you actually want to get students to the game. That's part of the problem. There hasn't been enough care and consideration given to making sure students get involved. It must be as frictionless as possible. There needs to be efforts to make sure students get there. It isn't enough to make them aware that the event is happening. It needs to be done in a way that gets students there even if they don't really care about the sporting event. It needs to be a social event where they are simply moving with the crowd of other students and everything is effortless.

The tix should be in your ticketmaster file, since there's no paper tix anymore.
