Baseball fans use mobile phones, kiosks for tickets
July 18, 2007

The Dallas Morning News: The Texas Rangers are among a handful of Major League Baseball teams expected to launch Tickets@Phone, a technology that sends a barcode to a mobile phone or device that's read by a scanner to gain entry to a game. The new technology allows fans to buy tickets online at the last minute and avoid lines at the will-call window. Six ticket kiosks that debuted this season at the stadium have also been gaining traffic. The Rangers plan to add more kiosks next year.
