Lawrence Dumont goes Cashless

There's less than three months before the first Wingnuts home game at Lawrence Dumont stadium.

Before you head out to the ball game, there is something you should know: no cash allowed.

Lawrence Dumont will be the first stadium in the country to move to a cashless system.

The Wichita Wingnuts General Manager, Josh Robertson, says this will help ticket and concession lines move faster and will cut down on theft as well.

"One thing I've heard numerous complaints of at Lawrence Dumont is the waiting in line at concession stands," he says.

Robertson says automated registers will be placed at concession stands so people can select what they want, slide their pre-paid card, and continue watching the ball game.

"If you want your refund in cash back at the end of the night, you're able to do that. If not, the card will be good for two years."

The city says it will benefit from this change as well.  According to the team's lease agreeement, which hasn't been finalized, the city doesn't make money unless the Wingnuts profit.
