FC Barcelona Basketball Apologizes For Fans' Long Wait, Vows To Improve Youth Ticketing

The FC Barcelona basketball team has released a "statement saying it will improve its ticketing recall system for minors at its Palau Blaugrana arena," according to MUNDO DEPORTIVO. For Sunday's game between Barcelona and Spanish Basketball League (ACB) side Gipuzkoa, "long lines at the ticket windows forced fans to wait for entry until the game had started because only one ticket window was open for distributing the tickets that were free for children younger than eight." The club "has asked for forgiveness from the fans who were affected and assured that Barcelona will take the necessary measures in the future to ease ticket distribution, and if necessary, increase the human resources in the ticket office for upcoming games" (MUNDO DEPORTIVO, 11/4).
