"There’s only been such a small sample size with Jordan Love," Zorn said. No one knows, including NFL schedulers, how well Love will play, and in a quarterback-driven league, that's an important factor. More noon or afternoon games could make ticket prices higher because they are easier for Packers fans, more than 80% of whom travel 50 miles or more to games. Only five of the team's 17 games in 2022 where at noon, and only one was at Lambeau Field. Without Rodgers at quarterback, there likely will be more noon or 3:25 p.m. Mahomes or Brady, or a much-anticipated player making his debut.įor many years, the Packers were handed schedules with the maximum or near maximum number of prime-time night games. Packers-Bears games, no matter how poorly one of the teams might be playing, are traditionally among the pricier tickets on the Green Bay schedule. That is going to drive up prices," Zorn said. "When you have two teams that are close by, there are just more buyers in the market. Travel, particularly if teams are close to one another, such as New York and Philadelphia or Green Bay and Chicago.Of those teams, the Packers play the Steelers in Pittsburgh this season. Successful teams draw more fans, especially on the road, especially if they are the Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers, Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers or Buffalo Bills. The five top influences for ticket prices are: Here's who the Packers have signed, who left the team and which players remain unsigned. More: NFL free-agency period is underway.

"As the season plays out, and we can all see how the team's fortunes go, obviously then, the market ebbs and flows based upon those occurrences," Garrity said. The Packers' losing record last year, higher season ticket prices − which could mean more tickets on the secondary market − and inflation also could be factors. If secondary market prices fall, that could accelerate.ĭennis Garrity, president of Ashwaubenon-based ticket and tour provider Event USA, agreed that ticket prices will be lower initially, but a change in quarterback is not the only reason. Also, increasingly − and this is an annoyance to the Packers − visiting fans more and more are showing up at Lambeau Field. The Packers have a season ticket waiting list of more than 140,000, which means there are always fans who want to attend games. "Last year, they were the third-most expensive ticket. Every single year the Packers are in the top 10," Zorn said. Only long-term failure - we're looking at you 1980s - would cause a collapse in demand, and thus prices. Kyle Zorn, brand manager for secondary marketplace TickPick, estimates ticket prices could open about 10 percent lower than if Rodgers was still quarterback, assuming no other significant variables, such as a Packers-Chicago Bears opener.Īfter that, it will depend on how quarterback Jordan Love plays and the Packers' success. For Green Bay Packers season tickets holders, not as much. If Aaron Rodgers plays for New York this year, it could benefit football fans who buy tickets on the secondary market.

With everything going on in our country, it would be nice to keep our complaints and cheers purely related to football here. Yes, the forum is meant for discussion, but we’d like to keep that discussion to football as much as possible. Recent events have brought the NFL to the forefront of political debates, but due to the highly emotional and passionate discussion it tends to involve, we think it’s best to continue to keep politics and this forum separate. While we certainly understand the frustration by fans on all sides of the discussion, we have decided to keep the Broncos Country message boards separate from politics.
