Okay, so the most expensive tickets are going for that much. So what's new? Big game, high dollar seats go for high dollar prices. It is not like these are regular seats.

I would never pay that for the Superbowl, Playboy Mansion or a college football game. Go rub elbows with people and get into the events for a 1/5th of the price.

Take the same cash and make a good weekend out of it in Vegas or Fiji.

You need to read the article:

Oh, and these aren’t even close to being the best seats out there. They are in the lower level of the end zone and in row 25. You can choose between seat 17 or 18. That doesn’t come with catered food or secure you from sitting behind someone who you might consider a giant.

Not to mention I would never pay anything remotely close to that even after visiting Bryant D. It's a nice stadium but no where near that cost, lol.

My entertainment value is no where near that price point.

Let me see someone buy them. I highly doubt anyone pays anything near that since you can get decent tickets for a fraction of that. Just because someone puts that as the asking doesn't mean its the going rate.

Correct. I gotta give the guy credit for making headlines regardless how off base he is with the market value pricing.

Just saw where they got this from, some db on stub hub has his two seats at twice the price of everyone else and these may not be the best seats, but they are the most expensive. You can get club level for less than half.

Nice invented news headline. I think I am going to put our extra tickets we buy in the upper deck for the samford game for 25k so I can get some headlines.

ESPN is brilliant. Guess if someone puts their tickets up for sale for $10M, ESPN will report tickets going for $10M..
