As host to the Washington Redskins during the NFL season and various other sporting events throughout the year, FedExField in Andover, Maryland requires a large team of employees to keep the stadium running.

By |April 9th, 2010|

Every year golf enthusiasts flock to Augusta, Georgia for The Masters Tournament, the sport's greatest spectacle.

UGA student ID cards now carry electronic football tickets

Students at the University of Georgia no longer have to pick up paper tickets to attend Bulldog football games. This is a big deal, especially in the Southeastern Conference, where a football ticket on gameday is more valuable than the most precious of jewels. For the first time last Saturday, UGA students were able to attend a Georgia football game simply by having their student IDs scanned at the gate. The new system is electronic. Students purchase their football tickets online, and instead of receiving paper tickets, a record of the transaction is stored in the school's computers. When the barcode of the student ID card is scanned on gameday, the electronic ticket is verified and the student is granted entry.
