That doesn't take care of road contests though.Why not call the school? The legislature is not the place to set this policy. Your school is. If you dont like the school's response, elect new board members.
I like that it says right in there that it could increase the administrative costs of schools.In the event anyone was curious how this got kerned into the budget bill,

Looks like it got amended in by the Senate, and the House was sleeping or didn't fight for their constituent schools hard enough.

You mean you now want to control how a school not in your district conducts its business? You don't have that right. If they only accept online tickets and you don't like it, don't go.That doesn't take care of road contests though.
It looks like I do now have that right.You mean you now want to control how a school not in your district conducts its business? You don't have that right. If they only accept online tickets and you don't like it, don't go.
Pennies.I like that it says right in there that it could increase the administrative costs of schools.
I dont mean to sound rude and apologize if I do, but I just don't think the government should be involved in this argument. As someone said earlier, the state should be working on a fair way to finance schools as they were mandated by the voters of Ohio and the courts of Ohio, not on how to pay for someone to go to a football game. That is nothing but control issue which the government should not have.It looks like I do now have that right.
I’m having a whale of a time trying to find out who on the Senate’s education committee is responsible for this.I like that it says right in there that it could increase the administrative costs of schools.

Agree 100% on school funding, but that is hard and this was easy. The only people who should be upset about this are running the companies making the money selling online tickets. Giving customers a choice and possibly saving them money should not be something that gets you up in arms about government overreach. I wish Ticketmaster/Live Nation could get the same treatment.I dont mean to sound rude and apologize if I do, but I just don't think the government should be involved in this argument.

So government overreach is OK when it benefits the side you're on? It should bother everyone. It should also bother people that they stick it in a totally unrelated piece of legislation. If it's worth doing (it's not), write it as a standalone bill and debate it on the floor.Giving customers a choice and possibly saving them money should not be something that gets you up in arms about government overreach.
Absolutely, but others who see your opinion as moronic have the right to say so.People still hat the constitutional right to have an opinion.
Try the 7th and High Kroger. See who’s clubbing the UScan.I’m having a whale of a time trying to find out who on the Senate’s education committee is responsible for this.
A booster club is a separate entity, but if they can charge admission to school events I can too.There is plenty of grey area. Say a booster club or drama club with budgets separate from the school takes over ticket sales. Then it is the club and not the school that is charging admission. Can they then require an online ticket purchase? If a booster club runs concessions solely from their own budget, do they have to provide a cash option?
Commerce is the purview of the government. It's a commercial transaction. As such the government has the ability to regulate.I dont mean to sound rude and apologize if I do, but I just don't think the government should be involved in this argument.

You're words, while I find them extremely offensive, are not, unfortunately, completely inaccurate.Commerce is the purview of the government. It's a commercial transaction. As such the government has the ability to regulate.
Never said someone cannot have a opinion. Your opinion is cash should be taken at the gate. Your opinion though does not mandate that said school should adhere to that. That is the schools right. If you have not followed, I like using cash, I dont like the state saying what a school with extra curriculars have to to do. That is not their placePeople still hat the constitutional right to have an opinion. Geeze, put a brown shirt on next timesomeone did
Very weak argument. The government does not have the right to tell a private business how to collect the debt they are owed. This should apply to schools as well. All I have been trying to convey, is the fact the state legislature overstepped their authority.Commerce is the purview of the government. It's a commercial transaction.

Public schools are about as far away as private businesses as anything I can think of. Pretty much everything they do is regulated by the state.Very weak argument.

Would you be okay with the state demanding that you pay only in dimes and nickels?Public schools are about as far away as private businesses as anything I can think of. Pretty much everything they do is regulated by the state.
I would say most schools in west central and northwest Ohio pay with checks at the JH,JV, and Varsity games I've done.What part of the state are you in? I’m in the central district and going into my tenth year officiating and haven’t been paid in cash once. Crazy how different parts of the state can vary so much.
As someone whose been around different Boosters clubs, you may see collections from different clubs like a Boosters, Lions Legion they may work it and maybe take a donation (usually just Varsity games), and that donation is to a 501c3 usually. But the money goes to the schools athletic department which part of that pays for the officials.A booster club is a separate entity, but if they can charge admission to school events I can too.
A drama club and it's budget is usually not separate from the school.
Crazy. I’ve gotten paid by check once in the past 5 years.I would say most schools in west central and northwest Ohio pay with checks at the JH,JV, and Varsity games I've done.
How much money do public schools receive from the state (taxpayers). As a taxpayer and a season ticket holder who also travels to road games and who does not like using my cc to buy H.S. tix with, I am all for this legislation, good job legislature.I dont mean to sound rude and apologize if I do, but I just don't think the government should be involved in this argument.
