Over three million ticket requests for Frankfurt NFL game
“Fans tried to buy tickets on more than three million devices. Of course, there are also fans who have dialed in with multiple devices to increase the odds. Nevertheless, there is an insane demand,” said the Germany boss of the US professional league NFL, Alexander Steinforth, the German press agency. Exact figures are not expected for the next few days.
Tickets are already being offered for resale on the Internet at exorbitant prices. Depending on the category, a ticket normally costs between 75 and 225 euros.
The last game caused a huge rush
Tickets for the first Frankfurt game between the Miami Dolphins and Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs on November 5 were gone within minutes. The sport is booming in Germany. According to the organizers, they were able to sell three million tickets for the German premiere last November in Munich.
“Back then, we had felt an unbelievable anticipation among the people, which was then reflected in their interest in tickets. But we notice that we have made another big leap in terms of demand,” said Steinforth, and also pointed out a change in ticket sales: “Due to the enormous demand, we have reduced the number of tickets per buyer. We went down from six to four.”
