Those are brokered tickets . Not face value .
who gives 1 damn... those are resale sites where season ticket holders as well as the NFL, as well as corporations who do nothing but sell tickets. The prices are what they are.
Ive been writing on this topic off and on all year, including writing my congressman. Then, as soon as the crap hit the fan over taylor swift tickets, THEN people started taking notice of what Ive been saying for years now. The tickets are controlled by illegal monopolies. The entire market is manipulated and controlled by ticketmaster, stubhub, and the like to our detriment. These prices are being manipulated by these brokers using their control of the market, using algorithms to see how many peope are looking at tickets, using the fact they know how many games youve already gone to, where youve gone and how much you have paid. It is such a racket.

Considering the times we live in, is this really a shock?

I just replaced a car key for $450. That's right, four hundred and fifty U.S. dollars.

You used to be able to buy a replacement key for $4.95. The price for a ticket to the Cowboys first Super Bowl in 1970 was $15.
well seeing how you can get Bills/Bengals tickets for 160 bucks.....for me? No, because I deal with these tickets every year as I travel to 3 or 4 games every year. So I knew exactly what was gonna happen.

Seems like CowboysZone could dip into the donations pool and treat some of their long time members to playoff tickets.

Maybe do it by likes count or something.
R.S. thinking ahead to the NFCCG.
If the extrodinary comes through....are you driving or flying to Philly?

Average ticket price at over $1400 and highest at almost $10k, and it's still only Thursday..........



Good Grief, Charlie Brown -- I knew tickets were really costly but that's just a bonkers charge nowadays. It'll be TV at my place for me! :omg:

Getting to view in the comfort of my living room is a special luxury for me, to be sure. Going to the rest room at my leisure, included for nada.

Well, TBT, as much as I hate Tom Brady, Tampa did have the highest impact on ticket costs.

I wouldn't be so quick to fall for the narcissistic hype we like to live in, thinking the world revolves around us, and that everyone is always thinking of us.

Besides being one of the most annoying stereotypes we cowboy fans keep living up to, we should REALLY look at logical explanations here.

The game is in SanFranciso. California. EVERYTHING costs more in most of CA (especiallySF). A freaking 1 bedroom apartment in CA cost more than giant house in TX.

Of COURSE tickets in CA cost more.... their population has a Top 5 average salary per worker, and high education rates....while Texas is one of the lowest average salary states and THE lowest educated state in the country...even worse than Alabamy or Missassippah. 49er playoff tickets cost so much, because the people who live there can pay so much more than a typical Texan can. A loaf of bread and a gallon of milk will cost way more in SanFran too (but that's probably cuz of us Cowboys)

If the Eagles, Giants, bucs or Vikes been going to SF, the price would have also been sky high.

I am actually going to book flights to phoenix now in case we make it. I wont buy a ticket to the game, but i will go to Phoenix and partake in the activities, parties and watch game at a bar somewhere. But I would never pay 5k or more for any football game.

Keep talking absolute garbage....here, ill show you how ignorant your comments are. Last week Seahawks niner games could be had for 90 bucks. Ill say one more thing and just leave at that because you ate so clearly out in left field on this. I actually pay very close attention to ticket prices all year. If Carolina plays the bucs at home, you could get tix for a hundred bucks. If Dallas played in Carolina 2 weeks later, cheapest tickets are 300 plus.

No secret the Boys account for the lion’s share of NFL revenue. Roger needs to get off his azz, let his hatred for all things JJ & Cowboys go .. and cash the damn checks. All the teams share in it.
