Super Bowl Tickets Go for Super Low Prices

While prices are historically high, the bigger story for me is how little supply there is in the marketplace. At the current quantity available, the number is 67% below the previous low on this date in 2010.

Of all the possible Super Bowl outcomes, this is the lowest demand combination of teams, but given how little supply is in the market place, that may be the saving grace for fans looking to attend. At these supply levels, a Cowboys, Steelers and Packers appearance could have shot the market to a $10k average asking price. Historically, supply increases about 100% from Championship Sunday to peak supply, and it will be interesting to see how this year compares.

Real-time listings for the game:
