For the first time in NFL history, the price of a Super Bowl ticket purchased directly from the NFL will have a face price on the ticket of $1000.  Super Bowl XLIII will also feature $800 face price tickets for some seats at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa Bay, Florida.  Super Bowl tickets are very hard to come by and are always in high demand.  The NFL distributes tickets through teams in the league and also offers a mail in lottery for the chance to purchase tickets at face price.  Super Bowl tickets on the secondary ticket market are usually much higher than face price.

Below are average ticket prices for the four major US sports.  NFL and MLB ticket averages are for the current seasons, NBA and NHL ticket prices are from the previous season.  All four sports saw their average ticket prices rise and the average prices are unlikely to drop any time soon.
