Super Bowl 50 is shaping up to be the most expensive ticket in NFL history

Now that the Carolina Panthers and Denver are there, we know how much it’ll cost to see them.

NOW THAT THE Carolina Panthers and Denver Broncos are set for Super Bowl 50, it is time for fans who want to attend the Big Game to scurry for tickets. But if they are going to go, it is not going to be cheap.

According to SeatGeek, after the conference championship games on Sunday, the average price for a ticket to the Super Bowl was $5,335.

That is the most expensive average ticket for a Super Bowl two weeks before the big game in the last six years.

In fact, none of the last five Super Bowls had an average resale price greater than $3,964 (2014). It would seem safe to assume that this year’s game is also more expensive than any of the Super Bowls prior to 2011.

What could help fans is that typically prices drop as the game approaches. Four of the past five Super Bowls had cheaper average tickets just before the game, with the lone exception being last year’s Super Bowl between the Patriots and Seahawks.

    Got to respect his honesty tonne fair. It’s always easy to be critical.

    Let’s hope it works out for him. Acknowledging that he was doing himself no favours sounds like a step in the right direction

    best of luck to him, wasnt aware that he was hanging around with an unhelpful crew.

    but at the same time every single sports person always says they are in the best shape physically and mentally ever so will wait to see how he goes.

    It is probably a good thing for him to move to Italy. There is obviously a culture he is trying to get away from. If he eats and trains properly and focuses on soccer he could have a good career. They are built up and then knocked down. They work so hard to get to the top level but loads of them throw it away. Too much money too young perhaps. I think it’s generally they surround themselves with the wrong type of people. A player dyeing their hair for me is usually a very bad sign, they’ve lost focus completely. I hope he knuckles down and gives it everything because it feels like the last chance saloon
