To identify the NFL teams with the most expensive tickets, event ticket search engine SeatGeek provided 24/7 Wall St. with the current average secondary-market ticket prices for each team for the 2013 NFL season. 24/7 Wall St. reviewed team record and attendance data from ESPN. We also reviewed city cost of living data as of the first quarter of 2013 from the Council for Community and Economic Research. All ticket prices listed are secondary-market ticket averages, provided by SeatGeek. These are the NFL teams with the most expensive tickets.


So, they ignore face value and go off secondary market values, ignoring which tickets are available in those markets or how many people are actually paying the inflated prices... Just the prices, whatever that means. Those may in fact include or only be tickets that failed to resell, which would really be a measure of the resellers stupidity.

The data is something, but it is hard to tell what.

Secondary market to come up with that. They are really stretching. Also, the attendance numbers are retarded also. We can nly sit so many in the dome. So by pure logic, every team is capped at what their attendance can be. So the stadiums that hold more people can have the highest attendance. We are a sellout every year to season tickets. They should go to a game and count all the tailgaters outside the dome while the game is going on. If our stadium held 100k people, we would still fill it.

If we had psl's I think we would be sol. Big reason why Renovating the dome was the way to go. Only corporations can afford psl's similar to what Dallas and ny charges.

You can have more people in suits than seats. Also big games thet can put temporary seating on the field.
