The Super Bowl is always a hot ticket, but with the Rams playing in their home stadium and die-hard Bengals fans flying in from Cincinnati, demand is skyrocketing
The Super Bowl is always a hot ticket, but with the Rams playing in their home stadium, die-hard Bengals fans flying in from Cincinnati, and no attendance restrictions for the first time in two years, demand is skyrocketing.
The "get in" price for a ticket on StubHub dipped just below $4,000 on Wednesday while the average price of tickets sold on the site was around $6,500, eye-watering amounts that left some fans with sticker shock. "I think that is absurd," said Paula Thomas, a social worker. "I think that is given the state of our economy, I think that's absurd for any normal person to be able to pay that."
Julio Bermejo, who owns a restaurant in San Francisco, said $2,500 is as much as he would be willing to shell out. "After that, I'll find a great bar and watch it if I can't get a ticket. On Sunday morning, if all hell breaks loose, we can always find a good bar and start drinking."
