Can you do both? I just bought a Cubs game ticket and it said to make sure to take my phone to the stadium, but then it also sent me a download link for the tickets IIRC.
I'm a worry wart about that kind of stuff. I usually take a better safe than sorry approach. You could always take the tix and ditch them once you get inside if the phone ends up working. Plus, if you get sloshed and drop your phone in a puddle...
