LEXINGTON, Ky. – Major changes are coming to the way the University of Kentucky sells tickets to its students for men’s basketball and football games.

Starting in July, the long-running traditional men’s basketball student ticket lottery will end in favor of an online ticket purchasing process. Students will now enter games with a mobile ticket accessed through the UK Athletics app instead of with a paper ticket.
