I received a call from the UMass athletic dept yesterday. They said paper tickets and parking passes will be available in 2026 (with a surcharge) for people who want them.
This seems to be a change from what I understood in my April contact with season ticket intern.
I also had a number of e-mails from blog readers who said they were going to contact the athletic dept about the all-digital policy. It appears it had an effect.
My sincere thanks to all the blog readers for their kind words about the blog. If I can go to the games, I'll keep the blog going.
Let's hope the marketing intern who calls me next April is aware of the change :)
