IslandBillsFan Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 Hello All, Sorry to add one new thread in the addition to the many that are out there regarding the game this weekend. However, I haven't seen this posted in other places and think it is insightful for those attending the game. Like many of you, I purchased 6 tickets through Vivid Seats on Sunday night. (This applies to those who purchased from Stubhub as well) These are "mobile tickets" where you use your phone as entry. I have already created my Jacksonville Jaguars account and have the tickets in there. Today I called the Jacksonville ticket office to see if I can print these tickets. I was informed you cannot and all playoff tickets are "mobile entry." As an FYI to all those attending who got their tickets through such means I recommend: 1) Making sure you have the app downloaded and can view your tickets ahead of time. 2) Sending tickets to the individual members of your group so they have it on their phone. In my case I have to share 5. It is no problem for all the tickets on one phone if everyone is planning on entering the game at the same time and staying together all day. However, if anyone needs to go to the bathroom or get food without the mobile ticket, they may not be allowed back in the section. Lastly, I have one question. I have several friends who are planning to come to the game and hoping to scalp tickets outside the stadium. Since the vast majority of tickets out there are these "mobile tickets," will there be much of a scalper market? Currently, of the 1000 or so tickets on Stubhub only 8 are hard printable tickets.
boyst Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 Late in the game if the stadium empties do what I do at concerts or other sports venues. Text that ticket to a friend or 10 and they use it to enter that area. Standing room concerts bwahahah riiight. One ticket and I get 10 people in that area
DrDawkinstein Posted January 2, 2018 Posted January 2, 2018 Pro Tip: When you log into the app or website, you can view each "ticket" by QR code. If you take a screenshot of each ticket/QR code, it will save in your pics. Then, you can text each pic to each person in your group instead of going through the hassle of forwarding/transferring each ticket individually. You also dont have to worry about not having data connectivity at the gate as you have a "hard copy" of the image file.
IslandBillsFan Posted January 2, 2018 Author Posted January 2, 2018 Good idea Boyst. My tickets are decent (Section 232) so I don't think I will move much. However, I have a friend who is in a box. Do you think that trick would work for Box seats? Thanks Dr. Dawkinstein! Another good tip. Anybody have an idea if there will be a scalper market?

Clus in Buffalo you need to scan in, and scan out when you leave. So if no one leaves the box, no one getting in, ticket or no

If you have been to an event at an arena that uses FlashSeats(no hard ticket option, must use app), taking a screen shot does not work. I'm not sure why, but a friend of mine tried the screen shot method, it didn't work, but then pulled up the QR code with the FlashSeats app, and got in.

Interesting, I've used the pic before, but could see it not working (for no good reason). I'll have all methods up and ready as we approach gametime!
