this is wishful thinking- its one ticket reseller reporting a drop in their sales...the vast majority of NFL tickets are sold to season ticket holders long before the season starts...some teams have more single game seats available than others...

there was no 17% drop in tickets sales to this weekends games other than by this one resller..

Roger Goodell needs to resign after he apologizes to the POTUS and the entire Republic.

Still cannot believe that lowlife cockroach sided with Kaepernick wearing socks that read death to cops.

What a jerk!

There are a lot of videos on youtube of fans burning their NFL gear and tickets. Some have been posted to this web site. It just started 4 days ago.

I don’t believer this is wishful thinking.

so they are burning tickets they didn’t buy???

as i said- the vast majority of the tickets are purchased by season tickets holders in May...some teams have more single game tickets available than other teams but NFL ticket sales are not down 17.9%...

Stubhub is big ticket seller like ticketmaster.

So what we are seeing are market forces being reported.

Hey if you think disrespecting the flag and the country is winning people over to the NFL. Then you should encourage more of it.

You're right that NFL teams aren't losing any ticket revenue from these secondary sales, but you can be damn sure that the sales figures for these resellers are a very good indication of exactly how NFL fans feel about their teams RIGHT NOW.

And remember that when game-day attendance goes down (i.e., the resellers aren't getting buyers for all their tickets) then the NFL teams do lose revenue from concessions, parking, and other things that relate directly to actual attendance instead of ticket sales.

I actually saw an NFL advertisement last night touting how great NFL games are...on a semi premium movie channel where I’ve never seen an NFL commercial before. Changed channel immediately. Glad it’s costing the NFL advertising dollars.

no- they are not a ticket seller- they are a ticket reseller of people who have already bought tickets and want to get rid of them...

at least attempt to get your facts straight...

Goodell and his dad are both radical leftists.
