Reasons why Detroit Lions tickets are skyrocketing as the city’s economy is shaken by a rare playoff run.

why Detroit Lions tickets are skyrocketing as the city’s economy is shaken by a rare playoff run. 

The cost of watching the Lions make their fairytale run for the Super Bowl might make even Eminem wince.

According to online marketplace TickPick, tickets for the Lions’ Sunday

home game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are selling for an average of $1,097. This makes it the most

expensive Divisional playoff game ever and the second most expensive non-Super Bowl playoff game.

That almost doubles the previous record ($605) set by the San Francisco 49ers

visiting the Dallas Cowboys in the Divisional round of the playoffs just the year before.

TickPick reports that standing room only tickets are going for nearly $700.

One of the worst-performing teams in professional sports for a long time, the Lions are currently enjoying a moment.

Not just the ticket sellers, but the whole Detroit economy is benefiting from the team’s exceptional postseason performance.

The demand for bars, restaurants, hotels, and casinos is skyrocketing as both local

and foreign fans swarm downtown Detroit in the wake of the team’s first playoff victory in thirty-two years.

Eminem, a native of Detroit, was present at last week’s Lions game. And when he said, “This is the story of what a football team can mean to a city,” during the

opening NBC broadcast of the Lions game last Sunday, he may have best captured it all.

According to consulting firm Anderson Economic Group, the Detroit metro economy is expected to grow by $52 million just from this Sunday’s playoff game alone.

According to Tyler Theile, director of public policy and economic analysis at AEG, “a $50 million stimulus to the Detroit economy is a really big deal.”

The expenditure made by fans at hotels, restaurants, shops, and bars outside of the stadium is also taken into account by this stimulus projection.

According to Remy Lutfy, a resident of Detroit and co-owner of the downtown steakhouse Vertical Detroit, “this has been monumental for the city.”

Vertical Detroit, which is usually closed on Sundays in January, was crowded with fans last Sunday ahead of the Lions game.

“We’re excited to showcase the city because the Lions have hardly ever been a winning team,” Lutfy remarked.
