Some Broncos fans say the team鈥檚 new mobile-only ticketing policy caused long waits at stadium gates and for some to miss part of Sunday鈥檚 season opener.
The Broncos rolled out mobile-only ticketing during the preseason. The team reported no major issues at that time. Sunday was the first regular season game where the process was in place.
