Pretty lame if all you left the game with was a QR code to show people.

Does an option to even purchase an old-fashioned hard copy ticket still exist at all MLB parks today? If so, I can see some people making inquiries about games he's going to be playing in on how to possibly swap or exchange their electronic tickets for paper ones. Heck, I can even see some people walking up to the ticket windows then before one of his games, if it doesn't sell out, and just buying a bunch of the cheapest seat tickets available. And then turn around and sell them if he ends up hitting an historic homer in that game.

I don't think there are tickets though, is what I'm saying. Not even on the day of. I haven't seen a person walking around with a ticket in years.

My aunt is a Giants (NFL) season ticket holder. She went through hell with them to keep being issued paper tickets. But 99% of people don't get them.

Wow, that sure changes things for ticket collectors.

If there are no paper tickets for a game he hits an historic homer in, watch someone figure out how to save their electronic ticket, and sell it like an NFT maybe. Can only imagine how that would sit with ticket collectors.

I assume the Yankees might do some dead stock offer where they allow e-ticket holders to exchange them for hard copy tickets after the fact. I feel like similar things have been done for other events.

But that's kind of bogus if you ask me.

If Judge was using the stuff Mcgwire, Bonds and Sosa used, he'd be at 80+ home runs right now

All he has to do is go play in Boston and he'll hit that many every year!
