    Im kind of scratching my head as to what a ton of the Bears season ticket holders are doing......

    They have had season tickets for generations...right???
    They go to EVERY fucking game for the last 10-20 years...right???
    Now they have the BIGGEST game ever played at Soldier Field...
    Bears-Packers for the NFC championship.....

    And they are flipping their tickets on ebay??? Really??

    I understand that the money they make will pay for their seasons tickets for next year...I get that...

    But you would think that they would want to be at this game....Right???

    It doesnt get any better than this.....Right???


    i bet half of the season tickets get flipped on a reg basis. it's an investment for a lot of poeple.
    81 is now off the air

    I know a lot of season ticket holders and they are all going. I know a lot didn't go to the Seattle game. Hence that's why the crowd was extra rowdy because a lot of people who don't get to go to Bears playoff games finally got to go. But I think most season ticket holders are going. Some might have 4 seats and want to sell 2 of them but shit I would go if I had season tickets.

    You would think for a die-hard Bears fan...This would be THE GAME....

    The GAME you have been waiting your entire life to witness.....

    And ya sell the ticket for a few thousand dollars??? Really???

    I just find that really fucking weird....

    3k is a ton of money...I get that

    But Packers-Bears for the Superbowl is a once in a lifetime....right???

    Unfortunately, from a flipper's perspective, no, it doesn't.

    It's really disappointing, disheartening that it all comes down to the almighty dollar.

    You'd think there is nowhere else in the world that the season ticket holders would rather be
    than in their seats at Soldier Field on Sunday.

    The tickets that went up yesterday were snapped up by brokers.
    The common man didn't have a chance in hell, sadly.
    Nice shirt.

    Myself??? Fuck yeah I would had flipped a ticket if I would have gotten one....
    Then I would have watched the game on TV...Just like I have done for the last 30 years....

    But to see so many season tickets holders flip those tickets....its kind of weird....

    They have lived their entire lives waiting for this game...
    ITS THE BEARS-PACKERS FOR THE FUCKING SUPERBOWL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Yep, all of the crappy games, the horrendous weather, the blow-outs,
    barely squeaking by come from behind victories...they were there for it all.

    Yet when it comes down to the biggest game that has ever been played on Lake Michigan,
    they are at home, or at a bar when they could be THERE!

    I don't understand it either. Fans dream of a game like this, and some will never get the opportunity,
    or even get close.

    My wife and I have talked about buying a PSL. If we do, we would sell 4-6 games a year. I think a majority of season ticket holders sell some of their games. I think the most logical way to approach having season tickets is cover your cost and then go to the remaining games. BTW, I would definifitely sell this game if I had season tickets.
