Have the Orioles ever resumed the use of paper tickets?

Orioles respond to my email

Hi Jay,
 
Thanks for reaching out. If you don't have a smart phone to bring up your tickets on, we recommend purchasing the tickets online at https://www.mlb.com/orioles/tickets/single-game-tickets and bringing a printed out copy of your confirmation email to the box office.
If you prefer not purchasing the tickets online, you can always purchase tickets at the box office.
Our box office is only open on home game days and will open up 90 minutes prior to the game.
 
Hope this information was helpful.
 
Sincerely,

i walked up to a game at the White Sox stadium a month or so ago when I was in Chicago on business.  The guy at the window sent me a link via text for the ticket.  But, printing a paper ticket was an option - I just didn't need it.  I would imagine the O's and most teams do it the same way, and that email response basically confirms it.  Seems like a non-issue to me.

Just one data point, I thought it was all paperless but when I went to the game Saturday the family in front of me in the line at the gate had paper tickets.

So they do exist, I have no idea what gyrations that family might have had to go through to get paper tickets.

I walked up on Monday and got a $10 ticket and they printed it just like it used to be. In 2021 they would text me the ticket but now the paper stubs are back.

I walked up the the ticket window an hour before a Sunday day-game vs the Angels last month and they issued a paper ticket as well. I did not request or ask for one. The cheapest ticket that day was $17.

How are season tickets or mini season packages handled? I loved getting my book of bound tickets when I got 13 game packages from 2013-2018 and loved it as a kid when my dad got full season packages and I’d help him divvy it up for his 10 other plan co holders. 

The tickets are in the MLB Ballpark app. I’m sure they would find some way to accommodate potential purchasers that don’t have a smartphone, but the bound ticket books are not even an option anymore.

Additionally, I haven’t had the best experience with my rep. He doesn’t respond to emails sometimes and I’ll have to call to get someone else to assist with various things, including renewing my 29 game plan. I’ve asked for a new rep, but they won’t do anything about it. So for those that have had good experiences with reps, I am glad, but it has not been my experience with my current rep (he’s my third in the last 8 years, as the first two moved on).

    • Soto has been fine since his first couple appearances and appears to be picking up steam. That makes seven. Problem is Cano has been the most reliable and all of a sudden looked terrible twice in a row. Hopefully he can get in one decent appearance in the final series.
    • So It's 13 pitchers for the Wild card round? What position player are you dropping?
    • There have been 2-3 times when it seemed logical to call him up but they don’t.   I’ve never understood this thing they have for Baker.  Hey, Cole Irvin is available again!!
    • While we lost some talented players, I think the consensus was some of the players we lost were actually blocking more talented prospects. The loss of Westburg and Urias should have been mostly offset by Holliday and Mayo. Instead, they were truly abysmal.  Povich had some nice moments but he was disappointing as well.  Maybe our expectations were too high - Elias is not going to hit on every prospect, and even the ones that turn out good may take a while to adjust. Still, I think it is fair to have expected more out of Mayo and Holliday since the organization deemed them ready to promote.  In addition to the prospects, you had Adley hit a wall, going from a 6 WAR pace to replacement level, and Cowser and O'Hearn both struggling.  Certainly injuries hurt us, but we should have been strong enough to overcome them. Maybe not to sustain a 105 win pace but I think it is fair to say we should have been able to beat 95 wins and win the division even with the injuries.  
    • I was wondering what the knee-jerk reaction would be to an ugly game last night, but the truth is that the bullpen is fine, as is the rest of the team. We lack a true lockdown closer, but we have six arms by my count that are very good relievers in Akin, Perez, Coulombe, Webb, Cano, and Domingez. And you can add Suarez to that list next week, and possibly Povich, who should also make the PS roster as a lefty long relief option to mirror Suarez. Anyway, that game could have and would have gone much differently, IMO, if it were a playoff game. Burnes obviously stays in longer and gets at least through the top of the order if not back down to the bottom third to hand it over to the bullpen. Hopefully we'd be able to scratch out some runs, but that's not the bullpen's fault.  This is an extremely good team with a lead. Let's hope we get on the board early and often starting tonight.
    • Boy, Brandon Young who has some decent numbers at Norfolk must be injured or unimpressive to the front office to not even get a look for this bullpen. Bryan Baker is almost a waste of a call up.
