Chip of hot red peppers apparently had trouble trying to attend a recent Los Angeles Rams game at SoFi Stadium – and took to X (formerly Twitter) to share his tips on the venue. Especially when it comes to helping people like him who don’t have a smartphone to gain entry.
“Dear @RamsNFL, I love you, but it’s very difficult to attend your games for someone like me who doesn’t have a smartphone,” Flea wrote. “I can’t print tickets or parking passes. I can’t get a wristband, I can’t return to my seat after a bathroom visit. Smartphone ownership should dictate the experience. I hate smartphones.

Some users in Flea’s responses felt the same way. A commentator ” agreed, pointing out that dining establishments no longer allow people to pay with cash.
Others joked about what it must have been like for Flea without a phone. One user commented: “Security guard at Rams game: ‘old man with no phone trying to sit in the right seats, keeps saying he’s going to run away or something . Crazy old white guys.’

Another transformed Flea’s post by pointing out that it’s also difficult to get on an RHCP show without smartphone.

Keep scrolling for reactions to Flea’s smartphone-free post.
it’s also pretty much every concert experience. I know it’s not about the money with you but we all have to adapt at some point. especially if you want to attend shows in 2023.
