Ticket Price Question

[UPSCat4080]

Curious as to why Miami of Ohio was going for $35 a ticket and now for Northern Illinois the cheapest you can find is $60+? Didn't think Northern Illinois was that much more of a desirable team than Miami of Ohio, so was curious if there is anything special going on this weekend that would warrant the increase? When you are purchasing 5 tickets that extra $25 a ticket for a nobody game can make a difference lol

We are a top 10 team now.

Ticketmaster does ‘dynamic pricing’ now so they adjust based on demand

Night game, nice weather, we’re now ranked 9th

That is across the board every site it seems. Miami of Ohio was a night game too, so was just curious as to why tickets are almost double for Northern Illinois. Oh well I guess! Probably will watch this one on the flat screen for free lol

I believe it is also Parents Weekend at UK which likely has impacted the number of people planning on attending that game.

I was shocked at the jump in price from the Youngstown game to Northern Illinois as well. Actually, it appears that the UofL game is the cheapest home ticket left on the schedule per the secondary market.

Day vs night probably.

I'm too lazy to look and too broke to afford it but what are the Georgia tickets going for? I'm sure it's absurd, but it's a good problem to have. As to OP's question, night game with demand being up now that we're a Top 10 ranked team, not shocked they're up to $60.

Lower levels are going for about $1k for corners/endzones and up to $3 to $4k for midfield. At least that's the prices being asked online.

Wow! Hot damn. I was expecting $4-600. Welcome to big boy football!

Northern Illinois is a better team and program than Miami of Ohio.

I’m not trying to be political but wonder if sellers are taking advantage of the mindset of everything has to cost more now. And the sellers daily expenses are higher so they want to get more out of their ticket than in normal times?

Heck, I would sell my lower levels (section 29-2 seats) for $500 each within the next couple of weeks. I have never sold any either. If wife and I can’t go we just give them away. That’s some high prices.

That's one reason I've been doing some 'dynamic tailgating' in my driveway.

I am sure Ga. will be undefeated when they get to Lexington. If UK is also undefeated it will be Wild what GameDay tickets go for
