Maryland Tickets on StubHub $13.25; Cheapest M Big Ten Game Ever?

Submitted by BursleyHall82 on

Tons of tickets on StubHub for the Maryland game in the $13 range. I'm speculating this is a combination of us sucking, Maryland being new to the B1G, the weather and more. But is this the cheapest Michigan Big Ten football game anyone can ever remember on StubHub?

It also makes me realize once again that any of us who paid for season tickets are suckers.

Sideline seats for the game area as low as $18.63.  My PSD for each of my sideline tickets was/is $350 alone.  When you include the actual price for the season tickets ($450 each seat), I paid $114 per ticket.  It sucks to see them available for so little when I paid so much.

Paid full price for my tickets back in August for this game. I honestly am not mad though. I love tailgating and going to michigan games regardless of the records. I will be rooting for a win and a bowl game!!! Go Blue.

Wow, who'da thunk if your team is basically f*cking terrible year-in-year-out, your conference is basically f*cking terrible year-in-year-out, your constantly ridiculed coach is on borrowed time, you keep having serious creeper-type problems with your players, and then you play a bunch of also-ran former ACC and Big East teams with objectively no business being in the Big Ten conference (besides the paramount business objectives of the B1G), you're gonna have some difficulty convincing 110,000 people to show up and pay more than the price of a movie ticket to freeze their asses off watching Devin Gardner throw the ugliest interceptions in the college game?

I'm actually very grateful for the cheap ticket prices for this game. I'll be driving up from VA tomorrow to go to my first game ever. Been waiting for this for 23 years and now I can finally afford decent seats. Takin' two of my nephews. We're gonna freeze and scream our faces off and it's gonna be awesome.

Prices are now below ten bucks. 

Honestly, as heretical as this may sound, if it's going to be below 100,000, let's just get it over with. The streak is cool, but we all know it's been fudged a few times that a game where there obviously aren't 100k in the stands, when there are 5000+ tickets on stubhub, 3000 tickets unsold by Athletics, and likely a few more thousand (not including students) who will just eat their tickets... If it ends, it ends. And I have a feeling on Saturday we're going to see a crowd that's laughably and obviously below 100,000. 

At some point, hiding behind "but we sold 100,000 tickets and that counts!" just comes off as tacky. We made the bed--let's hop in already.

the PSD for the season for two tickets was $875. Seats were on the 33 yard line on the visitors side, row 33.  Seven home games in 2013, so the PSD per seat per game was $62.50.  With three "premium games at $95 face value per seat, the average price per ticket per week was $83.57 per ticket, plu7s the $62.50 PSD per seat per game that adds up to an average total $146.07 per ticket per game or $392.14 per game, not counting parking or concessions....THAT is why I gave them up.  My family had seats in that stadium since 1956.....It was such a hard decision.   My seats were four seats in from the aisle and the other side of the aisle, the prices were much higher.   I sat next to a doctor who had the four seats next to me toward the aisle and he was giving up his as well.  The cost is just not worth.
