The Chicago Blackhawks have unveiled their training camp schedule, but a change in ticketing has left some fans dissatisfied. While practices remain open to the public, attendees now need to claim tickets via a mobile device to attend, and there is only a small limited amount.
The team's statement explains that fans can claim up to four tickets per family. While this digital approach may suit many, it has raised concerns, especially among elderly fans who may not use smartphones.
Traditionally, training camp practices were accessible to fans of all ages, fostering a sense of community. However, the switch to mobile-only ticketing risks excluding older fans who may not be tech-savvy.
The Chicago Blackhawks' challenge is to modernize ticketing while maintaining the inclusivity and traditions that define their fanbase. As fans eagerly await the season, the team may need to consider adjustments to address these concerns.
