I don't know what this example has to do with going to mobile ticketing. Watching on TV vs going to a game in person, yes. Paper vs electronic tickets? No.
Btw, I logged in and transferred my tix to my Google pay app this am. It took all of a minute and it was super easy. There was a button on the ticket, "save to Google Pay". I clicked that for each ticket. I opened the app, and voila, there were my tickets. (I'm 52 and only moderately tech savvy.)
Mobile ticketing isn't new. Airlines have been doing it for years. MLB does it. Amtrak, Metro North and MTA do it. Movie theaters... it's ubiquitous.
I'm not dismissing that there are people who have difficulty with this transition. Maybe it's possible you are taking a difficult experience for a few people and projecting that onto a larger group?
