How To Get Super Bowl Tickets At Face Value


Here is some helpful information on getting Super Bowl tickets:

The NFL keeps tight control of tickets and distributes them according to a strict formula.

The two conference championship teams playing in the Super Bowl each get 17.5% of the tickets. The host city’s team gets 5% of the tickets. Another 35% go to the other teams in the league, and the NFL keeps about 25% to give to its sponsors, VIPs and for promotional events.

So how can an ordinary person get tickets? You can start today by entering the NFL Fan Lottery. Each year the league holds a lottery to award about 1000 pairs of tickets to ordinary fans. The lottery is held around Labour Day, so you need to enter about a year in advance of the game. To enter, send your request to:

Superbowl Random Drawing

PO Box 49140

Strongsville, OH

USA

All Super Bowl requests must be sent in by certified or registered mail. If you are selected to buy tickets, you will have the chance to purchase only two and you won’t know where your seats are until they arrive. Expect to pay at least a few hundred dollars each, but remember you can sell them for thousands.

About 30,000 fans enter the lottery so your chances of winning are about 1 in 30. Remember, winning the lottery does not give you free tickets; it just gives you the opportunity to buy them at face value!

Super Bowl is considered to be the biggest event in professional sports, an experience like no other. Super Bowl tickets are virtually impossible for any fan to get his hands on. Super Bowl tickets are really of high demand. It is important that our tickets are coming from a reliable source or a legal ticket depot. Good to know that there is a Super Bowl Depot online that offers safe ticket and even the cheap ones.
