People want to see NFL games in Las Vegas, and are willing to spend a lot of money to do it.

The Raiders have, by far, the most expensive tickets in the NFL on secondary markets, ticketing company Logitix said, via the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

An average Raiders home game ticket at Allegiant Stadium is going for $595 on the secondary market. That’s more than $200 more than the next-most expensive home site, which is Miami, where the average Dolphins ticket is going for $387. Los Angeles has the third- and fourth-most expensive tickets, with the Chargers averaging $361 and the Rams averaging $359. No. 5 is the Chiefs at $354.

The single game that is currently priced the highest is the 49ers-Raiders game at Allegiant Stadium on New Year’s Day. The average price for that ticket is $777.

  1. jeez, people are stupid, and seldish, whata waste for 3 hours of fun. The greed of the owners is still worse though

  2. Maybe that’s also why Raiders have the largest % of no-shows for each home game.

  3. Too bad the secondary market brings no revenue to Davis. With interest and demand so strong, he should raise prices for the first market which is controlled by the club.

  4. From watching available seats from my team, I believe that some teams are putting some of their unsold seats directly on Ticketmaster

  5. The resale market for any tickets is ridiculous. Not just the NFL. Many concerts are insane as well.

    It wouldn’t surprise me if the NFL went after a percentage of those secondary sales.

  6. Right, because moving to Vegas was the biggest bonehead move in the history of the NFL.

    The Raiders have no fan base there, the locals hate them. The opposing teams have a better showing every home game, lol.

  7. Obviously because Las Vegas and Miami are tourist hot spots. Going to a game while vacationing in those cities is a nice flex move.

  8. Maybe that’s also why Raiders have the largest % of no-shows for each home game.

    No show means the ticket was already bought but the person who bought the ticket didn’t show up. That has nothing to do with the ticket price. This shows that people are paying for the expensive ticket but just missing the game for various reasons.

  9. Vegas is one of if not the best place where you can look at the schedule and plan a trip around your team coming to play the or you already have planned a trip and tack on a game.

  10. Vegas is a tourist destination for people who think losing money is entertainment. 20 years ago I sat on the 45 yard line during the AFC Championship Game at Network Associates Coliseum in Oakland (Raiders v Titans). The face price for that ticket was $76.

  11. Hate the football ticket secondary market. It was better when it was illegal to scalp tickets.

  12. When buying tickets on the secondary market, it is like any other negotiation. Power, Information & Time are the critical factors. I learned this from experience going to an NCAA game. When I first arrived ( with no tickets hoping to buy last minute ) I got there early ( after checking to see if I was a Cop) the ticket holder told me I could have 2 for $ 3000. Checking around I heard between $ 1200 and $ 1500 each. As game time came closer, prices drop quickly. The game started at 1:00 at 1:05 I bought tickets for face value of $ 60 ea.
    Missed the National Anthem, saw the whole game. When you see the 14% no show rate at Raiders games there is an opportunity to get these tickets on game day for face value or below. At 1:15 or 1:30 those tickets are worthless and the seller will lose whatever they paid for them. Power, Time & Information all shift to the buyer. You just have to be patient and be willing to watch the game in a bar if you can’t find a favorable deal.

  13. We had a difficult time last season selling our New York Giants tickets for even half price. A 4-13 record and QB sneaks on 2nd and 3rd down will have that effect.

    Yes, no show means the ticket was already bought. It was bought from the Raiders or the NFL. The reseller (who may have no intention of going to the game) then marks the price way up in hopes to make a profit. He cannot find a buyer for the tickets and so nobody shows up in that seat. But that ticket still shows as sold. It was already bought… that’s how the reseller has it. So the 1st commenter is correct here. The ridiculous resale market is what drives the no-show percentage… get it now?

  15. As stated above, a large portion of the fans attending Raiders home games are not cheering for the Raiders.

  16. A lot of those no shows are probably from casinos who bought a bunch of tickets to give to high rollers. They just didn’t use them.

  17. no shows, reseller markets, blah blah….excuses for mismanagement and horrid front office leadership.

    The Raiders keep moving and that’s the reason they have no fan base to buy their tickets. The local Vegas area doesn’t want the Raiders there, they want their own team (expansion.) See the NHL – G0lden Knights. Moving to Vegas will be the biggest brainless blunder in NFL relocating history.

  18. Football will never succeed in Vegas, right people? I always figured you’d come out way on top if you spent four to five hours at a football game instead of in a casino.

  19. Who would pay $777.00 to see Trey Lance play? All the Raider fans from the Bay area and all the Raider fans from the L.A. area.

  20. Yeah but who’s are most expensive on the primary market that’s what true fans want to know

  21. no one cares about the market or who’s the most expensive….ture fans root for their team no matter what….except when the d0wnie owner keeps moving the team away.

  22. Fans in LA and the Bay area snapped up many of the season tickets with their intent to resell as many as half of the games to attempt to cut their cost for the face value plus (the significant $10’s of thousands spent on) the PSL for each seat.

  23. dejadoh says Vegas is a tourist destination for people who think losing money is entertainment.

    This is something that people that can’t gamble or always lose say. Sore loser move, must be a Raiders or a Lions fan, not used to winning much.
