Time is running out for fans to get tickets to the College Football Playoff title game, and those hoping for prices to fall continue to be out of luck.
Prices were trending downward earlier in the week, with the get-in price dropping below $3,000 on Wednesday on StubHub, TickPick, and Ticketmaster. They reached a low of $2,760 on StubHub on Thursday morning. Then on Friday morning, prices started going up again, with $2,915 being the cheapest ticket available across ticket reselling sites.
Who’s Buying Them?
Tickets to the game have been primarily purchased by Florida locals, with TickPick reporting that 32.2% of purchases have come within the Sunshine State. The ticket platform has also seen a high number of purchases from the Midwest, with 17.4% buying from Indiana and 11.6% from Illinois.
The Miami-Indiana ticket continues to be the most expensive in CFP history by a significant margin, and there’s no evidence that fans should expect them to drop much further.
Hard Rock Stadium’s 65,000-seat capacity is not enough to satisfy the demand for tickets, given the circumstances of the two finalists. Indiana is looking to win its first national championship and has the largest living alumni base in the U.S. Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens is also home to the Hurricanes, making it a relatively short drive for lots of fans who are looking to see their team play for its first championship since 2001.
Parking Fees Skyrocketing, Too
On top of trying to get into the stadium to see the game, fans also have to pay high fees to park their vehicles. For fans looking to park in a lot adjacent to the stadium and not have to take a shuttle, the cheapest parking pass is $360 on StubHub. Passes for those willing to park farther away from the stadium start at $117.
The price of tickets will continue to be a topic of discussion until kickoff, with notable alums of the two schools, like Mark Cuban (Indiana) and Michael Irvin (Miami), weighing in on the high demand. Fans will have to continue to hope that prices fall if they wish to attend the game.
