Nobody wants to miss Super Bowl LVII between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs and the tickets to watch it live are reaching exorbitant prices on the resale market. The event is full of attractions to make it worth attending at State Farm Stadium on Sunday 12th February and that has led to speculation, as every year, and everyone is scratching their pockets to get a ticket.
The duel between Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes, Rihanna's return to the stage, Andy Reid facing his former team and a host of other reasons make it worthwhile to have a seat inside the stadium for one of the biggest sporting events of the year. But how much does it cost to have that privilege?
The question is tricky, because depending on the plan you have, you will find different prices. What we can confirm is that it won't be cheap. Besides, you should also know that the remaining tickets are resale tickets, so what you pay will be nowhere near what they actually cost.
If your idea is to go alone to Super Bowl LVII because you don't know any other football nuts, you're in luck. The average single ticket is a little less than if you buy adjoining seats for a companion. The cheapest tickets are $4,400 (£3,620) plus fees, for a total of $5,326 (£4,381). It may even seem affordable, but you'll have to settle for a corner seat in the upper tier of the Arizona Cardinals Coliseum.
If you want a spot near the 50-yard line, that's a different story. Having the best visibility and being just a few yards from the gridiron comes at a price. Specifically, about $20,000 (£16,500) plus fees, which comes to a not inconsiderable $24,202 (£19,907).
The problem comes when you decide to go as a couple or a group to the sporting event. Adjacent seats are much more expensive. If you go for the less expensive ones, you can get them for $4,100 (£3,372), $10,287 (£8,463) with taxes when you buy two. Everything skyrockets when looking for the best seats at State Farm Stadium, reaching the exorbitant figure of $96,802.95 (£79,633) for two tickets with the extras already added.
