You Can See An NFL Game This Weekend For $12 (But It's Browns-Jets)
Forbes ^ | Oct 6, 2017 | Dave Caldwell

Posted on 10/06/2017 1:03:19 PM PDT by 11th_VA

One of the most meaningful games of the 2018 season ― not this season, but next season ― might very well be played this Sunday at FirstEnergy Stadium in Cleveland, where the woebegone 0-4 Browns face the less-woebegone New York Jets, who were expected to be 0-4 but are somehow 2-2.

Tickets were available Friday on StubHub, the resale site, for as low as $12, down from $15 earlier this week. Face value of full-price tickets on the Cleveland Browns' ticket site is $40 minimum. Tickets to the game are available on the NFL’s official resale site, run by Ticketmaster, for as low as $17.

In sharp sports contrast, standing-room-only tickets were selling for a minimum of $88 for the American League division series game between the Cleveland Indians and the New York Yankees on Friday night at Progressive Field in Cleveland, a mile from FirstEnergy Stadium.

Pretty soon the NFL will be on its knees begging people to come see their games.

Sadly, all too many are willing to pay top dollar for a few hours of entertainment.

That’s $10,012 too much.

IOW, pay me $10,000, paid r/t airline tickets, paid hotel room, paid rental car, paid food and I’ll sit in a seat.

All for just $10,000 plus expenses. Yeah, a bit more than the $200 a day plus expenses Jim Rockford wanted.

Sorta like the liberal newspapers were doing way back in 1999. They were begging door-to-door to subscribe. Never have and especially nowadays, never will.
