How Expensive Is It To Watch Your Wisconsin Team Play In Person?
In 2020, there are very few people who went to sporting events here in the state of Wisconsin. The lucky ones were able to go see Green Bay play, but that was about it. No Milwaukee Brewers games or Milwaukee Bucks games as well as no college games either. The good news for Bucks fans is there will be fans at the end of the month at Fiserv Forum. That was announced this week. Hopefully, there are full houses as people get vaccinated and herd immunity develops. People are going to likely forget what are the expenses of going to one of these venues. The folks at TNBets put together a fascinating report highlighting the pros and cons of stadiums across the United States. They use one ticket, two beers, one hot dog, and the cost of parking. Let’s see how each team stacked up.
Green Bay Packers
– Green Bay is the fifth-most expensive ticket in the National Football League at $192.93. Their prices go up each year as someone who tries to attend a game a year. I can tell you firsthand it’s absolutely worth it and no one would say differently. This is higher than the league average at $157.92
– The only places where it costs more than the Packers are the Las Vegas Raiders, San Francisco 49ers, Dallas Cowboys, Los Angeles Rams.
– Despite the high ticket prices, Packers sell the cheapest beer in the NFL. If you’re surprised by this stat, I have a river to sell you in Oklahoma.
Milwaukee Bucks and Milwaukee Brewers
– Despite the success of both the Bucks and the Brewers throughout the last few years, it is relatively cheap to see a game at their venues. Both teams check in around or a little under the league average for the cost of a ticket.
– Like the Packers, Miller Park (Now American Family Field) is the least expensive place to drink a beer at in Major League Baseball. If you wonder why there are so many drunks at the Brewers’ game, here’s your answer.
When TNBets asked people if they think full stadiums will be back in 2021, only 37 percent thought we would see full stadiums this year. While that’s probably realistic, I’ll hold out hope those numbers go up.
