Fans in opposing cities looking to see great or polarizing football have no problem shelling out top dollar to see Aaron Rodgers or Tony Romo sling the ball all over the field.
Green Bay has been a model of consistency for the past 23 years, while the Cowboys are the leagues most popular and polarizing franchise — win, lose or draw.
According to Forbes, via Vivid Seats, Green Bay and Dallas are the hottest NFL tickets around this season.
The Packers are the biggest road draw in 2015, according to new data from secondary ticket marketplace Vivid Seats. Prices on the resale market are 68% higher on average when the Packers come to town with two-time NFL MVP Aaron Rodgers. The Packers top the Dallas Cowboys (52%), Pittsburgh Steelers (39%), Denver Broncos (38%) and New England Patriots (37%) when measuring impact on an opponent’s median ticket price.
The five teams above all made the playoffs last year and finished the regular season with a combined record of 59-16. They all rate among the top eight Super Bowl favorites going into this season. The Broncos (No.1), Packers (No. 3), Cowboys (No. 4) and Steelers (No. 5) rank among fan’s favorite football teams, according to a September 2014 poll from Harris Interactive (the New York Giants rank second). The Patriots finished No. 8. It makes sense that fans would pay up to see this elite cluster of teams.
The Jacksonville Jaguars are least desirable team to watch in 2015 with ticket prices 25% below normal when the Jags are the opponent, followed by the Rams, Bucs, Texans and Titans.
