The Buffalo Bills probably won't be great this season and you might not be able to name more than a handful of their players, but there's one good reason to go to their games: You might be able to afford a ticket.
Among all the NFL games in the 2010 season, which begins next week, Buffalo is home to four of the five with the lowest-priced tickets, according to SeatGeek.com, which analyzes the prices of second-hand ticket transactions. The average ticket price for one of the Bills' games is a league-low $85.01—that's less than one-third of the $265.29 average price for a New York Giants ticket. The New Orleans Saints, fresh off their first Super Bowl victory, have the second-priciest seats at $240.83 and the New York Jets, who will christen a new stadium this season with the Giants, are third at $225.68.
Tickets for a game in Minnesota are the 25th-most expensive but the presence of Brett Favre and Adrian Peterson make them the second-highest draw in the league on the road behind the Dallas Cowboys. Then there are the St. Louis Rams, who have won a grand total of six games in the past three seasons. They've got the fifth-cheapest tickets at home and are the least-expensive draw on the road.
As for the cheapest tickets of the year? It'll cost you $41.87 per ticket to watch the hapless Cleveland Browns play the hapless-er Bills. Near Buffalo. In December.
On second thought, maybe they should be paying you.
