Thursday night's Rams-49ers game may be the toughest sell in the history of Levi's Stadium. As of Wednesday, resale tickets were being offered on StubHub for as low as $14 to see the team host the Los Angeles Rams at 7 p.m. That price is just cheaper than buying a pair of $7.50 pretzels through the Levi's Stadium app and comparable to the price of a beer and a hot dog at the the three-year-old arena. According to the team's seat licensing map, the cheapest original face value for any seat is $85.

If you park in LA and leave two tickets to the game on your dashboard, someone will break your window and put two more there!
LOLLOLOLLL. Very good!
LOL!.....................
I sometimes wonder about how ticket prices have zoomed upwards especially in the newer stadiums.
I have wondered how they set the price for tickets, and who pays that much.
Some people have told me that corporate types, and corporations, are buying these tickets. In the case of corporations, they can write off the cost of the tickets and skyboxes as a business expense.
I would say that, adjusted for inflation, tickets to NFL or major league baseball and NBA basketball, are far higher than they were decades ago. It has become much more difficult for ordinary families to go to a ball game.
I heard radio stations were giving away tickets to the first caller at their station’s phone line.
They are still waiting.................
Thursday Night Football was a bad idea. The only Thursday football we should ever see is on Thanksgiving. The ratings are gonna stink for this one. I’ll be watching baseball instead!
That’s a good one!!!
No mention of Kaepernick. So predictable of this lousy paper.
We won’t give NFL one cent as long as they insult us with their ridiculous inane and INSULTING anti- American displays, or permit them to persist. “To Hell with NFL” is now our football chant. ( and $7.50! For pretzel is itself another good reason not to patronize them. , ha!!!)
Why would the article mention a player who doesn’t play for the Rams or 49ers?
The niners suck and their stadium is miserable to get to.
Maybe it’s too much, to have expanded to Thursday night football. Is it possible to saturate the market with NFL football?
I don’t know about ratings for a better matchup with marquee teams on a Thursday night. But maybe overall there’s just too much, which can cause erosion of the ratings. How much football can America watch?
So we have Thursday night football, some college games on Friday nights, college games all day Saturday, NFL games all day Sunday, including Sunday night football. Then there’s Monday night football.
Maybe it’s all too much.
Off topic but when I was a kid you could buy three pretzels for a quarter from pushcarts in NYC. The good old days.
LOL!! Excellent, couldn’t happen to a nicer group of people.
They really need to end the rotation for TNF. And MNF for that matter. Giving everybody a turn is just not working. Niners-Rams should never be on prime time, at no point have both teams been good, and at many points they’ve both stunk.
no nfl until they get their act together...whatever the price
Those 49ers - Rams tickets are STILL overpriced.
“I will probably just take a look to see empty Levi Stadium is.”
My understanding is they measure how many people turn to the game, not how long you watch.
Be like Lot, don’t look back.
Perhaps if they threw in a free Colin Kaepernick jersey.
But at least the beers are only 10 bucks each...
