Notes: Vikings’ plot to get Minnesota fans to Detroit may have backfired​

The Vikings tried to get some of their fans to Detroit for the biggest game of the regular season, but things didn’t go according to plan.

Essentially, the team bought nearly $2 millions worth of tickets with the idea of selling them to their season ticket holders at a discounted price—a nice gesture by the club. However, not everything went according to plan and some of the tickets ended up back on the secondary market anyways.

One ticketholder sold their seat on the secondary market for $724. The buyer then turned around and sold the ticket to Advantage Tickets, a company the Vikings worked with, for $1,200. The Vikings then sold the ticket to a season ticket holder for $300. The season ticket holder, in turn, sold it on the secondary market for $690. That buyer was, potentially, a broker, since the ticket is back on the market again.
You can read the entire story from Breer right here. I will also leave you with this tweet from our own Erik Schlitt about the whole ticket conversation.
