From The Daily Caller: The Saints are playing the first game in the NFL to require fans to be vaccinated or provide a negative PCR COVID-19 test. What has that done to ticket prices for Monday night? Driven them straight into the ground.
According to Darren Rovell, some tickets on the secondary market are selling for less than $1 before fees.
As of this moment, StubHub has tickets for as cheap as $6. So, while it's not the lowest on the secondary market, they're still absurdly cheap.
This is honestly insane. Imagine taking your entire family to an NFL game for less than $20. Preseason games are always cheap, but they’re not this cheap.
They're not this cheap at all. This is happening because of coronavirus restrictions.
While I don't want to sit and debate the vaccine, I will say that this is great news for vaccinated people. If you're vaccinated, some sports games are apparently going to be shockingly cheap.

...a little short sighted aren’t we?
They make all there money from TV and could care less...
Problem is fewer and fewer are watching...so less and less money over time
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Won’t faze them. If they depended on their attendance for revenue they wouldn’t demonstrate hate for America and disdain for their fans
They’ll get paid
TV is no longer the cash cow it used to be.
I wouldn’t go to an NFL game if you paid me.
And probably masked as well.
This is what I hoped would happen. Except it is secondary market, the organization does not care, they have already gotten their money.
$6 on Stubhub is the lowest price you can sell tickets for, so may as well be $1.
That is awful they are changing the rules post ticket purchase.

A little pricey for TP but...sarc
WFC? Pro sports has been dead to us for at least three years. Oh, and wokenista ncaa stuff as well. Don’t miss it at all.
Well at least the paper bags over their heads will work as masks.

Mostly fake news. Prices are low because it’s preseason. We paid $5 each for Jets preseason tickets a few years ago.
“They make all there (sic) money from TV and could care less...”
Actually, it looks like all of these tickets he mentions are being resold (”secondary market”). So most likely someone paid full price for them, and then found out they couldn’t attend because of the vax mandate. So the team already got their money - it is the fans that are losing out.
Trouble in Chocolate Town.
Only $1? People are morons. It would take at least $1,000 to get me to an NFL game. :-P
Good insight! Most NFL tix are sold as a season package.
