:helmet2: Ive just bought tickets for the Saints-Chargers matchup in London late October. My ticket cost £70 ($140?) for an upper level seat level with the End Zone. My question is - Is this a relaive comparison to most NFL stadium prices or are we being ripped off as fans who are starved of the game over here???

Im a Cowboys fan but want to hear from fans of all teams on this one.

That price is NUTS. The Bills in Toronto games this year, an upper level seat is something like $75.

I've just bought mine too, we've got the £70 seats this year.


The Club Wembley seats were £125 ($250). These were the middle tier endzone seats. The sideline CW seats can only be bought with a hospitality package, these start at approx $500.

That being said it's cheaper than going to Texas Stadium for a game, well it is if you include the cost of flights, hotel etc... ;)

I got my two tickets for me and my girl and we paid it £70 plus the ticketmaster and shipment to Italy cost :(...We'll take this chance also to view Londoin :D but IMO is a high price for the ticket...

That's true enough, but it's not like we have any alternative.

We have one live game a year (and we are lucky to have that) so they can charge almost what they like.

The point is that to get to a game in the US will cost an awful lot more.

1 just got my flight booked. £400 with BA. Its actually £40 cheaper than last year. Hopefully there'll be no surcharges. I just have to sort out some game tix for the Cinci and Arizona games. This is my sixth consectutive season, and it truely is worth making the sacrifices during the year to go. Make it a holiday. Oh, and you have to have a very understanding wife. She is #1. :)

We went to see the Cowboys last year (Vikings @ home), and stayed for the rest of the week. We had to come home early, as we had tickets for Wembley last year which was the Sunday at the end of half term.

As for the understanding wife, well she came too as did our son.

Therin lies part of the problem, if we go to a game in the states, is three flights, three tickets etc...
