No more paper tickets at Pistons, Red Wings games: Here's how it works

Detroit basketball and hockey fans don't have to worry about forgetting their paper tickets at home anymore.

Little Caesars Arena announced Wednesday its plans to switch to mobile ticketing for all Detroit Red Wings and Detroit Pistons games, according to a news release.

Starting with the upcoming 2018-19 season, fans will no longer be able to use paper tickets to enter the arena.

Olympia Entertainment, which owns the arena, said in the news release that Ticketmaster technology will be utilized for ticket purchasing.

"The Ticketmaster technology, adopted in arenas throughout the country, also reduces the chance of fraudulent tickets, allows for convenient online transfer and re-sale of tickets, and provides a user-friendly platform for the online management of tickets," the company said in a statement.
