Today is the first day that hunters can purchase their doe licenses and the online system is having trouble processing all of the requests.
We heard from Butler County Treasurer Diane Marburger who said it wasn’t more than an hour after the licenses going on sale that the system started to crash.
“Throughout this period we are not able to log on and successfully go through the system as it comes back and gives us an error message because the system has kind of crashed,” Marburger said.
This is the first year the Game Commission has moved to a public sale where hunters could purchase their licenses online or at a store.
Marburger said at one point, the number of hunters sitting in the queue was nearly 70,000.
“There’s just too much traffic, too much demand for the sale of hunting licenses. Everybody is going on at one time,” Marburger said.
Marburger said the line was out the door of the County Government Center this morning with hunters trying to purchase licenses.
She also said there has been no word on when the system is expected to resolve its issues.
