The Super Bowl, featuring the Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas City Chiefs, is expected to attract over 100 million viewers, yet only about 76,000 will attend in person. Ticket prices soar to $4,800 for some of the cheapest seats, surpassing several monthly mortgage payments across the country. For instance, a Kansas City fan faces costs over three times their mortgage while Philadelphia's fans contend with a ticket price equating to roughly 2.6 mortgage payments. In stark contrast, few cities match or exceed the ticket costs, notably in California where housing costs are highest.
With a typical mortgage payment of $1,871 in Philadelphia, a $4,800 Super Bowl ticket represents approximately 2.6 times the monthly house payment for fans.
Kansas City fans would need to spend over three times their typical mortgage payment of $1,544 to purchase a Super Bowl ticket, emphasizing the cost disparity.
Only four metropolitan areas have higher mortgage costs than the price of a Super Bowl ticket, all located in California, with San Jose at $8,205.
The resale ticket price for the Super Bowl has skyrocketed, making it financially burdensome for fans considering attending the game in person.
