SB Tickets...

They allocate 75% of tickets to the teams (so 37.5% to the Chiefs). It's on the clubs to determine where to go from there. A majority are offered to STHs (though obviously not everyone can go, so there's usually a lottery), but they also some out to other supporters and such.

But it's hard for me to imagine someone giving more than a token discount to someone just to make sure it's a Chiefs fan. You'd save a grand or so per ticket just by not going through Ticket Exchange, but you're still going to be looking at multiple thousands just to get in the door.

To begin with, excluding the two Super Bowl teams, each NFL team gets about 1.2% of the tickets. Multiply that by 29 teams, and that accounts for 35% of all the seats at SoFi Stadium for this year’s Super Bowl.

With the 1.2% allotted to each team, every player, as well as everyone on each team’s coaching staff, gets two free tickets. Then, players have the opportunity to buy 13 more at face value.

Next, the host stadium’s team gets about 10% of the overall allotment.

“Which, this year, the Rams and the Chargers have to split that,” said Espinosa, as those two teams share the SoFi Stadium during the regular season.

Then, each competing team (in this case, the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals) gets approximately 12.5% — or a quarter — of all tickets. Presumably, this is the batch of tickets that was included in the lottery that Ramses lost.

But Espinosa noted how the host teams usually take care of corporate partners and stakeholders before they release tickets to season ticket holders.

“The rest (of the tickets) go to the NFL’s corporate sponsors and everyone the NFL has to take care of,” he said.

Espinosa also added that some NFL sponsors offer contests or “sweepstakes” for fans to get tickets. That leaves only 5% of the pie for direct sale to fans at, again, historically high face values.

Oh - huh. I misinterpreted that. Thanks.
