MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- Tuesday's home opener for the Brewers was the first time the team used their new license plate recognition technology.
Some fans had issues activating their parking pass.
The Brewers say the server that holds the passes wasn't working, so fans had to be scanned in like previous games.
Brewers President of Business Operations Rick Schlesinger spoke about the issues during the game.
"Nobody's gonna get cited for parking tonight. We're going to figure it out, if we can't get the system to work, we're going to go back to what we had last year," he said.
Schlesinger went on to apologize to fans for the inconvenience.
The president of the vendor, Interstate Parking, released the following statement Tuesday evening:
“The connectivity issues experienced by fans parking today at American Family Field were due to an Interstate technology configuration issue and not related to the Brewers or the MLB Ballpark App. We are working to correct the problem that lies within our app as soon as possible. Until it is resolved, and beginning with tomorrow afternoon’s game, we will revert to the traditional parking method that previously existed at the Ballpark. Cashiers will be scanning prepaid passes and accepting day-of-game payment upon arrival. We apologize for the inconvenience today and want to reiterate that no parking violations were issued to anyone at today’s game.”
