(FOX 2):Death, taxes, and exorbitant Detroit Lions tickets are the three things that are certain to happen in life, it has become clear.
Even though sticker shock may have set in at the end of the season after the Lions defeated the Minnesota Vikings in the final game to secure the NFC North division, the price has continued to rise.
Fans are learning that the Lions-Commanders game, which is scheduled to take place at Ford Field this weekend, will cost more than the tickets to three previous playoff games put together.
This weekend, the Detroit Lions will be broadcast live on FOX 2. Here’s how to watch the game on Saturday.
Based on the figures:
The showdown between Detroit and Washington on Saturday night is the most expensive of the four playoff games scheduled for this weekend. According to Vividseats, these are the most affordable prices:
-
Houston Texans vs. Kansas City Chiefs – $102
-
Washington Commanders vs. Detroit Lions – $418
-
Los Angeles Rams vs. Philadelphia Eagles – $201
-
Baltimore Ravens vs. Buffalo Bills – $123
It should come as no surprise that the tickets in the upper deck, next to the endzones, are the cheapest. Be prepared to pay over a thousand dollars for a location nearer the field.
There are other ways to estimate the cost of attending the game besides looking at the cheapest tickets.
TickPick, a website that records ticket pricing, was quoted by ESPN’s Field Yates on the social media platform X when he claimed that the Lions game is the most expensive non-Super Bowl NFL game ever, with an average ticket price of $991.
The Commanders-Lions game was outselling the second-best-selling Ravens-Bills game by 188%, according to StubHub, another ticket reseller.
Look more closely:
Having a successful sports team leads to the finding of pricey tickets.
As a result, scammers have burned some gullible followers. For himself and his son, one fan.
StubHub offers some brief advice for anyone who intends to purchase tickets:
-
Don’t pay cash
-
Use a trusted service
-
Don’t share ticket barcodes on social media
Customers should also be cautious when purchasing tickets from anyone on social media, particularly accounts that promise deals on tickets that seem too good to be true.
“A squad that recently won its first playoff game since 2006 is playing America’s favorite team, therefore the Commanders vs. Lions game has all the makings of a highly anticipated clash. “It’s by far the most popular ticket of the weekend, almost tripling the sales of the other divisional round games,” StubHub spokesperson Adam Budelli said.
As two important members of the Lions coaching staff are being interviewed for more important positions throughout the NFL, many Lions supporters are beginning to experience a sense of bittersweetness.
