Assuming the 49ers win on Sunday, fans wanting to cheer on the Niners in the January 19th NFC Championship Game in Seattle will not be able to buy tickets through the Seahawks, as the team is restricting sales to only zip codes in Washington, Oregon, Montana, Idaho, Alaska, Hawaii, and parts of Canada. Tickets go on sale Monday, and California residents can still purchase tickets through the secondary ticket market like NFL Ticket Exchange, Stub Hub and others, or with a friend who has a credit card billed to an address in the Pacific Northwest.

Would appear to be an unconstitutional act under the commerce clause and also violation of anti-trust laws:

Oh, yeah. That’a a hugh problem. I’m series.
No, really. I am....
Dumb move by Seattle and Denver to limit who can get tickets.
nigh Unconstitutional, eh?

It just means, as they have been since the Joe Montana Era, the 49ers are America's Real Team.
And where is Tony Romo, anyway...? :)

Not like it used to be. I took my kids and father in law to a Broncos, Niners preseason game last year and there were thugs acting like idiots, at a preseason game. Talking sh— to me with my 14 year old right there because we are Broncos fans (also like the Niners) wearing our Gear. So I understand Seattle making that move. But it would probably be the Niner fan idiots getting the sh— kicked out of em.
Getting to the point where going an NFL game is like going to a Millwall vs West Ham English soccer game.
