bought online at home. They're too easy to copy and resell. At least that's the explanation I got from my local NFL team. Ticketmaster is a sponsor of the NFL. The NFL makes it very difficult to avoid using Ticketmaster because it actually manages NFL season ticket accounts now. You can get printed tickets, but you have to request them, then drive to the NFL stadium to pick them up within a certain timeframe when the customer service windows are open.

Ticketmaster is even creeping down into high school and prep sports with deals with local state athletic governing bodies for championship game ticketing.

Ticketmaster is basically a monopoly against whom the federal govt should take action imo.
