81yo Dodgers fan can no longer get tickets because he doesn't have a smartphone

Stuff like this should always have an analog failsafe like a printable ticket. I can’t be the only one who has a phone actually die out and about. Especially as this device gets a little old, battery drops maybe 1% every 2 min of screen on use. Even worse in crowded cell service situations like baseball games.

I wish people would stop posting twitter links, they're a coin toss if they're even viewable

Can't read the twit because I don't have an account.

That's strange, because it opens and plays fine without an account for me.

They sometimes give a more firm account wall and sometimes let you slide a few tweets. It isn’t deterministic.
