Hey, if you're a big Packers fan and you have an extra $88,892, you and three buddies can go to Super Bowl XLV and sit in the lower bowl on the 50-yard line.

I checked it out on stubhub.com. Tickets in the premium club 136 section are going for a mere $22,223 a seat. And I see there's four of them left.

However, if things are a little tight this month, you might want to consider some of the other seats in that section. There's nine available at $13,335 a seat.

But I must warn you that parking is not included in the prices. And I had one person tell me he's seen parking for as much as $900 near the stadium. Hope that's not a deal-breaker for ya.

I'd pay that for parking. Of course, I'd have to live, eat, sleep and shower there for most of February.

Who are these people who pay these prices? Even a gazillionaire has to at some point say, "Ya know, paying 22 grand to watch a football game makes me look like a sucker. I think I'll just buy another car instead."

Stubhub did have tickets for as low as $2,049 for upper-bowl seats in the corner.

By the way, face value for tickets is $600 to $800 for upper bowl, $900 for lower bowl and $1,200 for club seating.

It will be interesting to see which fans win the ticket-buying battle. Steeler fans overtook Raymond James Stadium in Tampa two years ago. But that was no contest. They were up against Cardinals fans.

Packer fans are just as nuts loyal and well-traveled as Steeler fans. There will be a lot of gold. But will the second most popular color in the stadium be Packer green or Steeler black?

I'm thinking if the Vikings were in the super bowl (huge stretch I know) the scabbers would be cutting their losses, offering tickets on ebay for a buy it now of $50...grin

I dont often take shots at queens fans, but when I do...

Friendly jab. grin

I got a call from an acquaintance a few years back- he needed some help finding his bud a decent business aircraft. Seems his friend had a reasonable amount of success in his business- selling tickets and ticket futures. Huge money for the taking- some fools and their money easily separated.

I hope they have a SUPER bowl soon, that will not sell out.
then you will know what the max tickets are.

But there are enough fans with $$$ to make it profitable.

I am still suprised the game is free on TV
I would have guessed that by 2011, it would be pay for view to watch live.
Same with the World Series and Daytona 500.

But what the crap di I know?

Never been to any football game that I, a family member or friend was playing in. No pro games and I don't see that changing.

He REALLY wants to go.
