College football pageantry, intensity, and passion is in a different galaxy than the NFL. It’s the only college sport that literally one ups the pro league in every regard.
Except none one of that makes cfb better than the NFL. No one watches NFL football for the bands, cheerleaders or traditions. Most who watch cfb don’t watch for those things either.
In terms of quality of the game cfb is the inferior product. Thats more people watch the NFL than college football.

Like I said. . . much bigger stadiums, much better tailgating, much larger crowds, louder crowds, and more noise because of the bands and the passion from the fans.
Bigger stadiums don’t make the football played in them better. Better tailgating doesn’t either. None of what you are talking about is related to the actual game.

There are college players every year that dominate in college and go on to dominate in the NFL their rookie season. Of course the NFL has deeper talent but the elite college teams have loads of NFL ready talent.
So? That doesn’t mean college talent is better than the pro’s. Not sure what point you are trying to make.

quote:There’s usually a steady decline the week after conference championships as the initial euphoric demand surge falls and plans get locked in. Week-of prices do trend down more consistently than up, but it’s not usually by a lot. Also, when you’re dealing with people debating buying $8k tickets to sit in the upper deck, they’re not the type of people inclined to risk losing ones that work to wait and see if they can get them a few days later for $7k. They’re just buying them. Particularly ones using corporate cards who have a completely different definition of rounding error. Ongoing sales and decreasing supply keep prices up
Do price go down right before the game?
But you never see a collapse in prices the day before or day of or anything. As you get closer to the game, while sellers are eager to make sure they can liquidate their tickets, dwindling supply shifts to their favor as there’s always a huge base of buyers (that the sellers know are there, hence why they don’t really tweak pricing much) who have been lingering in the shadows to see if prices would fall or have FOMO. As the game approaches these buyers can’t wait any longer to pull the trigger or they’ll get locked out entirely. So a buying push starts and people get freaked out as available tickets fall and average price remaining increases. As this happens enough people just inevitably pull the trigger on the best remaining option to make sure they can get in. So most years there’s no real reason for sellers to lower pricing in the immediate lead up; the demand is always there
TLDR market forces all interact to keep pricing fairly stable throughout with no big or reliable flux

Paid about $900 per ticket for the Saints 2010 game.

Wasn’t it near $500 at game time? Or am I confusing that with the LSU-Ohio State 2008 natty?
I’m wondering how it’s gone up that much in 15 years… do rich people like football a lot more than they used to?

Just bought one with cash for $2,000 really pumped. Kinda weird Chiefs is misspelled on ticket but all good.

greater stadium capacity in the super dome is a factor

The game will have no atmosphere once again because the people in the seats aren't fans....just wealthy people who can afford those tickets.
