XL Prices

February 6, 2006 at 3:48 PM | by | Comments (0)



Super Bowl XL may fade gently into that good night, but Detroit will never disappear from our minds. And foremost in our Motor City mad minds is the following: how much did actual  fans--not execs getting freebies--pay for tickets to yesterday's game?

From an unscientific poll of fans conducted by the Detroit Free Press, it looks like there was a two-tiered pricing system. Anyone lucky enough to win the season ticket lottery paid face value for tickets, which was $600. Everyone else, either through ticket brokers or ebay, paid about $2500.

Also available on ebay for $2500? A 1974 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme, pictured above. We know which one we would rather have had, and it's not the one that involved Matt Hasselbeck. It's very hard to argue with a blue velour interior.
