Questions regarding buying tickets day of the game

Looking to buy tickets for today’s Padres afternoon game vs. the Brewers.

Has anyone had an issue buying tickets same day / or just before getting to the ballpark when using Ticketmaster/Stubhub/SeatGeek?
(ie. delay of getting tickets transferred/sent to your account)

Or is it better (cheaper) at this point to just to go to the ballpark box office?

Wiring to the thermostat controller appears unusual

I was looking to replace an old thermostat controller in my brother’s old house. (Built in 1949 in Alexandria, Va.)

Started taking off the “Hunter Set’n SaveIi” thermostat controller.

Looking at the wires coming out of the wall, it looks like the black wire coming out of the wall is stranded, while the other wires are solid.
The connections to the “Hunter Set ‘n Save II” are screws that tighten down on the wire.
Looks like they took a few strands from the black wire and secured them this way.
That seems a little sketchy.
What’s going on?
What kind of controller do I need to get for this set up/wiring?
Thanks in advance.

Edit: added photo.

Edit: It is a gas furnace with an A/C unit
