Do folks, in this day and age, not understand or comprehend the ability of computers to print almost anything.

I welcome the change who cares about the paper tickets I never use them myself. I hope more cancel so I can finally get closer to the field.

Wow it's almost like that's never happened b4! When dinosaurs farted too much and emitted that much sulfur into the atmosphere it caused catastrophic "climate change" which ultimately led to an ice age. Now instead of billions of farting dinosaurs, we have billions of cars spewing methane into the atmosphere.

CLIMATE CHANGE has been happening for millions/billions of years.

Thanks

CO2 levels are currently 30% higher than the peak of dinosaur farts, and rising.

Many teams are going to mobile only. It's 2019. This is not going to hurt season tickets sales by even .0000001%. smh

There are apps that you can sell mobile tickets directly to whoever you want. Both people need the app Shit, I did that 3 years ago already

The app to transfer mobile tickets to anyone is flash seats. You just both need the app.

Saw a lot of ppl buying or thinking of buying fake 2nd hand tickets on reddit, Facebook, etc this past season. I imagine its a lot harder to fake a digital ticket, or to at least be able to check its legitimacy.

We have the technology...

I think it is relevant to a paper ticket discussion.

I doubt it is a cost saving measure as much as it is a going green move.

Why not just make it an option to the season ticket holder. They pay an extra two bucks a ticket or something and they are printed and shipped to them and they can just have it be a renewable option when they pay for their tickets.

Most people probably do not care, so save the trees where you can, but the people that want them as keepsakes should be afforded that option.

If you want to save trees worry more about what we wipe our asses and dry our hands with. Which should be hemp.

In short, ticket prices are going up ~4%, no surprise, yet no more hard printed season tickets.

Mobile only is BS... The hard ticket is a keepsake, some season ticket holders I know keep books of them or have them hanging on the walls of their Bears den.

This will surely cause some to forego season tickets who have had them 40+ years.

This really impacts privacy for re-sellers and expect some may consider if legal action is possible since they own a PSL.

I personally do not approve of the change and will voice my opinion to them... Not sure if I will renew.

This is cheap move, do not buy the BS story of security... Printed tickets cost $$ and that is all this is about.

your seats must not have been good or you aren't that big of a Bears fan

Agreed on all accounts and having an option was also suggested at end of the Sun-Times article.

It would solve the grief over this move, but doubt they will relent.
