RAIDERS LEAD NFL IN TICKET REVENUE WITH $119 MILLION


DieHardFan

Recommended Posts

"

While the revenue amount was the most in the NFL, the number of Raiders tickets sold ranked 25th in the league. Allegiant Stadium is one of the NFL’s smallest venues at a capacity of 65,000; only Chicago’s Soldier Field (61,500) and Arizona’s State Farm Stadium (63,400) hold fewer fans.

The Raiders were able to benefit from the buzz of the NFL’s arrival in Vegas through their ticketing strategy. The club held back blocks of single game tickets, and when prices skyrocketed on the secondary market, the Raiders captured some of that upside through dynamic pricing with their remaining ticket inventory."

This past of the article is insane to me.   I'm old...Raiders tickets at Allegiant Stadium also averaged $595 on the secondary market, which far-surpassed the second-highest team, the Miami Dolphins, which averaged $387.

Willing to bet large amounts of tickets were given away as free comps by the casinos so that's why the prices got so high.

I don’t have inside info on the casinos, but two of my friends that have season tickets are routinely selling them for 600-900.  Never below 6 from what they tell me.  They both have lower level seats.  One around the endzone sideline, the other around the 25

I'm not sure the Bills can follow that business model for the tickets, but they're definitely thinking along the same lines for seating capacity and amenities.

But is it the correct one for Buffalo? I was hoping for a Buffalo style stadium. Lots of more affordable seats for all…. Lots of noise on game day…. I don’t get it. How many Buffalonians can afford suites? Are their more rich folk in Buffalo than I’m aware of?

PS - I sat in Marcel Dareus’s suite for a game once. It didn’t feel right not screaming, I tried, there was a baby there, so I stopped. I saw an empty seat outside and went there and screamed at the top of my lungs and enjoyed myself….even though we lost… but I screamed at Brady like I’m supposed to…. I don’t like suites…

Your haircut has nothing to do with Bills.

I do recommend that you use sunscreen on your head.

I grew it back.  Only went mr clean for a year.  Too much maintenance.  I could still use some sunscreen, but I’ll usually wear a hat if I’m going to have extended exposure to the sun

Can you imagine how much revenue gets dumped into that city for a football game? Gambling, hotels, food-- just the sex workers alone has to be huge.

Whatever works for you, but I prefer them a little smaller/fit.

Yeah, for the NBA and Hockey. Stick to video games chippy You might catch a cold going outside. Domes are as antiseptic and boring as going to a CVS. You know nothing about football. Stay in your cozy basement.

Sounds like Buffalo's stadium will have plenty of that.

I have a friend that lives there and has said he has seen the same thing.

Let me see ? $595 or $387 for a ticket to fight the crowd, find a place to park, carry all that game day stuff or sit in my living room & watch the game in a climate controlled atmosphere & after i'm half S**T faced when the game is over i can just go to my own bed ? 🤔

 

Not to mention the harassment from the pissed off home fans because the Bills just stomped their team into the ground .

 

I must be getting old because that's a tough decision ... NOT !!

I find it surprising that the dolphins are 2nd!

 

"For sale" posted ticket prices can be very different than "actual" ticket sales prices

 

Every ticket for sale on Stubhub, Ticket Exchange, ... is a ticket that has NOT been sold

 

 

 

 

It WAS sold---- to the person who is now re-selling it.

This is the NFL today. Even with the increases that will come with a new Bills stadium, we won't get anywhere near what the elite tickets go for.

I agree we will never get that high but the better the bills get the higher the cost is going to get on the secondary market.  I know last year some of the tickets that I would normally buy in the end zone were probably $50-$70 more per ticket.  It could have also been because the return of fans in the stands but I would guess it was more the previous than the latter.
