Wonder what tickets will go for in the Super Bowl should Cowboys get in??
Wonder what tickets will go for in the Super Bowl should Cowboys get in??
Come to think of it, don’t see scalpers at the games anymore. But that used to be the thing. My last event was Dec 2019. Baylor/OK Big 12 Champ game .selling doesnt work that way anymore. I would NEVER buy a ticket from someone that wasnt online as you could get ripped off . Online means you are protected.
and now, because of what happened with Taylor Swifts tickets going on sale, we might finally have the layers puled back on these companies and how the general public, once again gets the shaft. Ticketmaster clearly has a monopoly and they are using that power to put the screws to the general public.I remember reading on a different site years ago some Eagles fan saying the minute their season tickets went on sale some other ticket broker site had thousands of tickets. He researched their company and they had the same address in Beverly Hills that TicketMaster had. Don't know why that's burned into my memory and I remember him stating how no one listened to him either. It's obviously a scam that the teams are a part of. How did they have thousands of tickets as sudden as the tickets went on sale and how could this other company have the same business addy. The teams knew they were missing out on a ton of cash...
I applaud your public activity in responding to these issues. That’s something I’ll mention to our representatives here.and now, because of what happened with Taylor Swifts tickets going on sale, we might finally have the layers puled back on these companies and how the general public, once again gets the shaft.

Even though I would love to go to a SB and my wife and I do pretty well, there is just no way in hell I would ever pay the kind of money that it takes to get into a SB, It isnt that I couldnt do it, I just wont do it, ever. 1 sb trip is enough to cover traveling to probably 4 years worth of games for me.I’ve never been to a road playoff game . Been to several at home . Nothing like the atmosphere at a playoff game .
And Super Bowl is the ultimate experience . Too bad it’s not really affordable to the everyday fan anymore.
I hear ya. That’s responsible thinking .Even though I would love to go to a SB and my wife and I do pretty well, there is just no way in hell I would ever pay the kind of money that it takes to get into a SB, It isnt that I couldnt do it, I just wont do it, ever. 1 sb trip is enough to cover traveling to probably 4 years worth of games for me.
I wouldn't qualify but better view (and food) in my own living room anyway.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.

Average ticket price at over $1400 and highest at almost $10k, and it's still only Thursday..........
You don't know the half of it. The GOB wouldn't work because it couldn't communicate with the computer. Now they want to charge me $2600 for the new computer that worked great with the key that my stepdaughter lost.You mean FOB not key right? Not that it isn't a total rip off either way.
Multiply by 10Wonder what tickets will go for in the Super Bowl should Cowboys get in??
I won that 10 years ago but they did shut that down.I hear ya. That’s responsible thinking .
FYI- you can still write the NFL for future tickets at face value thru the Super Bowl lottery.
The Cowboys might not be there but it would still be a lifetime opportunity for any diehard NFL or football fan. Next year is in Vegas.
Us fans who run the prices up.And who do we have to thank for that?
have you actually read what I have written?Doubtful everything is rigged against the average person. The average person gets money (debt) at much higher interest rates, than wealthy people and banks. Take for instance credit cards, when you charge something, that money (debt is created). You are responsible for paying your bills, banks I'm sure to this day are still getting covered by the Federal Reserve, talking Goldman Sachs, Well's Fargo, the big conglomerates, who comprise the central bank, having zero liability. Banks get to create money out of thin air, meanwhile you get to go work endlessly, and they can just hit a few key strokes on a keyboard. TLDR since 1971 all money is debt. Average person sure as hell can't afford a home either. Say to much and the banhammer will come out.
"Ticket wholesalers' as they call themselves (industrial scale ticket touts) often move tickets overseas to get around any domestic ticket touting laws - using overseas registered companies.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.
I'm excited too. I remember the battles in the 90's between these 2 teams. I hate the 49ers, I mean really hate them. I still feel it stems back from the 90's. I'm excited for this game but nervous my reaction will not be good if we lose. It wasn't good last year. Last year's loss to the 49ers really hurt.Kind of excited that a nostalgia matchup like this still has interest. Pretty cool.
I can use synthetic oil and change the oil myself for about 37 dollars. Taking my wife's car in to get synthetic oil change would run almost 80 dollars.
