SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Syracuse University Athletics on Wednesday announced plans to implement mobile ticketing as the “only” ticketing option for Syracuse football, men’s and women’s basketball, and men’s lacrosse, beginning with the 2020 football season.
Printed tickets will no longer be available.
As the school monitors the “evolving landscape” of hosting athletic events during the COVID-19 pandemic, it calls mobile ticketing “an effort to be prepared to manage any future schedule changes and work toward a contactless environment,” per a Wednesday news release.
