Chicago Bears vs Green Bay Packers: Get Ready for Record-Breaking Ticket Prices

With just days to go before the highly anticipated playoff matchup between the Chicago Bears and Green Bay Packers, ticket prices have skyrocketed, making it a costly endeavor for fans to secure a spot at Soldier Field. The cheapest available single ticket is now in the vicinity of $400, with online ticket exchanges predicting record-breaking demand.

The Bears-Packers rivalry is one of the most iconic in the league, and the fact that this will be only the third time the franchises have faced off in the playoffs has contributed to the frenzy. Additionally, the Bears' long playoff drought has fueled the excitement among fans, who are eager to see their team make a deep run.

The demand for tickets is so high that it's set the benchmark for record prices for a wild card game. According to TickPick, the third matchup between North Division rivals is not only the most expensive NFL wild card game but also the priciest Bears home game since 2011. The average selling price of $813 represents a significant increase over other games.

The market is expected to cool down before kickoff, with ticket brokers predicting that higher-end tickets will fall by 30-40% while lower-end seats may remain steady or even increase as more Packers fans enter the market. However, some experts warn that this could lead to an even more frenzied secondary market for games in future rounds.

For now, Bears fans are eager to secure tickets to Saturday night's game, with TickPick reporting 57.1% of purchases tied to Illinois ZIP codes and only 8.9% from Wisconsin ZIP codes. Vivid Seats Fan Forecast indicates that Bears fans will account for 94% of attendance.

With ticket prices reaching all-time highs, it seems like the "double doink" – a painful missed field goal in the waning seconds of the 2018 playoff game against the Philadelphia Eagles – still lingers in Bears lore. The pressure is on for the team to deliver a thrilling victory and justify the astronomical prices that fans are willing to pay to attend the game.
 
idk man... I just don't get why people wanna pay $400+ for a football game lol 😂 but at the same time, i feel like if u r a die hard bears fan, it's worth every penny to see 'em smash the packers 🤑 and yeah, the rivalry is pretty iconic, so maybe that's part of the reason ticket prices are sky high? but idk, doesn't seem right that all the cheaper seats are gonna be snatched up by illinois folks and not wisconsin fans... shouldn't they get a fair shot too? 🤔
 
🤑 Ah man, can you believe those ticket prices?! $400 for a single seat? That's insane! I've been trying to get tickets for my friends who are going all the way from Wisconsin and they're like "we'll have to take out a loan" 🤣 I feel bad for them, but at the same time, I'm hyped that it's gonna be an epic game! The Bears need to bring their A-game if they wanna justify those prices. And wow, 57.1% of sales coming from Illinois? That's crazy! Guess you could say Chicago is ready to rumble 🏈💥
 
Ugh, can you believe this? Ticket prices just went through the roof, like, what's next?! $400 for a single ticket?! It's highway robbery, if you ask me 🤑. I mean, I get it, it's Bears-Packers and all that, but come on, it's not like they're playing in the Super Bowl or something. And now fans are willing to shell out thousands just to maybe, possibly see their team win? Give me a break 😂. The demand is through the roof, but the market is already expected to cool down... great, so I'll just end up paying even more for tickets later 🤦‍♂️. And don't even get me started on the "secondary market" – it's just a fancy way of saying "rip-off artists" 😒.
 
omg ticket prices are insane 🤯! like, whoa $400 already?!?! i'm a bears fan and my heart is racing thinking about this game 🏈🔥 it's gonna be lit if we can pull off that win 💪 meanwhile, i feel bad for the packers fans who wanna come but can't afford it 😓
 
Ugh, $400 for a ticket? 😱 That's crazy! But you know what they say, "you get what you pay for"... or in this case, you get an epic game with some of the best football players in the league 🏈💪! I mean, have you seen the demand for these tickets? It's like the whole state of Illinois is going to be there cheering on their team 🤯. And let's be real, the Bears-Packers rivalry is one of the greatest in the league - it's gonna be a wild ride either way 🎢!
 
man... $400+ for a ticket? it's like they're charging us just to breathe in that Soldier Field air 🤯. the hype around this game is real, but at what cost? i mean, we're talking record-breaking prices here... does that really say anything about our fandom or our team? are we just willing to break the bank for a fleeting moment of glory?

and what's with the geography? 57.1% of purchases coming from Illinois ZIP codes? it's like the whole state is bunched up in this one game 😅. and don't even get me started on those Vivid Seats stats... 94% of attendance, huh? that's some wild enthusiasm right there.

i guess what i'm trying to say is, are we just paying for the name on the front or the number on the back of that jersey? do we really think a win (or loss) in this game will somehow justify those prices, or are we just caught up in the moment? 💭
 
🤯 I'm so over ticket prices getting out of control like this 🤑. I mean, come on, $400 for a single ticket? That's just crazy 💸. And it's not like they're even selling out the stadium at that price... they're still expecting people to shell out top dollar because Bears fans are super die-hard 😅. It's like they're exploiting us or something 🤔. I swear, I'd rather watch it on TV than pay such exorbitant prices to be there in person 📺. And don't even get me started on the secondary market... 30-40% drop for higher-end tickets? Give me a break 😒. It's just a money grab at this point 💸.
 
Imagine you're trying to buy a pair of hot new sneakers 🕺...but instead, it's tickets to a playoff football game! $400 for a ticket? That's like buying a whole new laptop 😱. I think the problem is that people are getting too hyped about the Bears-Packers rivalry and the fact that this could be their last chance to see their team make a deep run 🏆. The demand is so high because it's only going to happen once, and fans want to make sure they're there in person.

But what if the team doesn't live up to expectations? 😅 Would people still be willing to shell out that kind of cash? I think some experts are right to say that the prices might cool down a bit before kickoff, but I'm not counting on it 🤔. It's like trying to predict the stock market...you just never know what's going to happen.

I did a quick diagram to visualize this situation:
```
+---------------+
| Ticket Prices |
+---------------+
|
|
v
+---------------+ +---------------+
| $400 (cheapest) | | $813 (avg.) |
| ( rising fast )| | ( record high )|
+---------------+ +---------------+
```
Ticket prices are going up, up, and away! 🚀
 
Ugh, I'm so over ticketing platforms 🤯! They're just exploiting fans who wanna see their favorite teams play. Like, $400? Are you kidding me?! I mean, I get it, rivalry games are exciting, but can't they do something to make tickets more affordable for regular fans? 🤑 It's like the platform is taking advantage of people's desperation. And don't even get me started on the secondary market – it's like a whole different game (pun intended). I feel bad for Packers fans who might be paying more just because their team has some dedicated fans in the area 😒. Can't we just enjoy the game without breaking the bank? 🤷‍♂️
 
I was just thinking about how much I love trying new food trucks at festivals 🍔🌮, like this one in Chicago that serves amazing Korean BBQ tacos... have you tried them? 🤔 Anyway, back to the Bears-Packers game - $400 for a ticket is insane! I mean, I know it's a big deal for both teams, but can't they just relax and make tickets more affordable? It's like, okay, we get it, you're a rival team, but do we really need to break the bank to see the game 🤑.
 
🤑🏈 I don't get why ticket prices have to be so crazy! $400 is like, a whole lot of money 🤯 just to watch a football game... I mean, I know it's Chicago vs Green Bay and all but come on! 😅 The Bears are gonna try their best and we'll all just have to deal with the sticker shock 💸. But hey, if fans want to pay that kind of cash then that's their prerogative 🤑. Just hope the game is worth it... a "double doink" would still hurt 😩.
 
I'm so stoked for this game!!! 🤩💥😃 Ticket prices are wild, like, whoa! $400 is crazy expensive 💸👀 I feel bad for those Packers fans from WI who can't afford tickets 🤕😔 But Bears fans are hyped and ready to rock! 🎸👊 I'm all about that #DaBears life 💛🏈 It's gonna be a sick game, and I hope they bring home the win 🏆💥 That double doink is still giving me anxiety 😳😂
 
omg what's going on with ticket prices for this game 🤯 like $400?? that's insane! i feel bad for bears fans who can't afford it they must be so nervous about their team making a deep run 💥 i wonder if the demand will die down before kickoff or if it'll just get more crazy later in the playoffs 🤔
 
😊 I mean, can you even imagine shelling out like $400 for a single ticket? It's crazy! 🤑 The rivalry between Bears and Packers is already electric, but now it's getting totally wild with ticket prices skyrocketing! 🚀 I'm a little worried about the secondary market, though - if tickets keep falling in value after the game, fans might end up losing out big time. 😬 Still, I'm hyped for the game and I hope the Bears bring home that W! 🏈👍
 
🤑 Oh man, can you believe those ticket prices?! It's absolutely crazy! I mean, I knew the Bears-Packers rivalry was gonna be big, but $400 is just ridiculous! 😱 I'm not surprised that fans from Illinois are snapping up all the tickets - it's a local derby! 🏈 But what's wild is that Wisconsin fans are barely making an impact, only 8.9% of purchases coming from them? That's like, half their fanbase showing up to this game and still getting seats! 🤯

And you know what's even crazier? The market is gonna cool down before the actual game, but then it's gonna get all frenzied again in future rounds... it's like a never-ending rollercoaster of ticket prices! 😅 I'm not sure if I'd wanna be a part of this market, though - it sounds super stressful. But hey, as long as the Bears bring home a W, I'll take those astronomical prices and run with 'em! 🏈💥
 
🤯 Man, can you believe these ticket prices?! Like, I get it, its Chicago vs Green Bay, but $400 a pop is insane! 😱 Not to mention those online exchanges, I've seen prices for individual seats over $1k! 💸 Its gonna be crazy at Soldier Field on Sat night. The Packers fans are already making up like 8% of the crowd? 🤷‍♂️ That's a lot of green and gold in the stands. I hope the Bears can live up to all that hype, or else those prices will look even more ridiculous 😅
 
man, i'm telling you, this is some fishy stuff 🤔... $400+ tix? that's not just crazy, it's like they're intentionally pricing out the fans who can't afford it 🤑... and don't even get me started on the 57.1% of sales coming from Illinois ZIP codes - sounds like someone's trying to manipulate the market 😒... what if this is all part of some bigger scheme to drive up ticket prices in future rounds? 🤯... it's just too suspicious, you know? 🤔

😅 "Double doink" still haunts us 😂 [GIF of a missed field goal with a comical sound effect]
 
I'm seeing this and I gotta say, it's crazy! $400 for a single ticket? That's just ridiculous! I mean, I get it, it's the playoffs, it's the Bears-Packers rivalry... but come on! You'd think that with all the advanced tech we got nowadays, they could find a way to make it more affordable for the fans. And 57.1% of those ticket purchases are from Illinois ZIP codes? That just means most people are gonna be stuck outside Soldier Field watching the game on TV or hoping someone scores a touchdown!
