[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 574657"] There are a lot of tickets for sale because many of the season ticket holders buy them to resell. While I generally discount the value of anecdotal evidence, I'll share a personal experience. The last time my wife and I went to a Packer game (Rams in 2011) we sat next to an elderly couple who have had 4 season tickets for decades. The couple was sitting in two of those seats; my wife and I were sitting in the other two using tickets purchased in the aftermarket through an on-line broker for considerably more than face value. That couple went to the games and made money in the process. I think this scenario is hardly unique. As for the price of aftermarket tickets, it does appear they've gone down since 2011. While the Rams game I went to that year was in the fall and the Pack was coming off the SB, that opponent is hardly a hot item and I bought the tickets long before the team got to 5-0. Those two end zone seats, as an adjacent pair, cost me $540, and they were close to the cheapest among a couple on-line brokers I checked. Today, similar tickets can be gotten as a pair for the Carolina game for under $400. Buying a single ticket is cheaper than the per ticket cost of a pair, as one might expect: [url]http://www.ticketexchangebyticketmaster.com/NFL/InventoryBrowse/Green-Bay-Packers-Tickets-at-Lambeau-Field-in-Green-Bay-10-19-2014?PID=1555248[/url] [url]http://ticketzoom.com/tickets/lambeau-field/t1566474/carolina-panthers-at-green-bay-packers-tickets.aspx[/url] I would expect last minute sales to be difficult.
