superbowl tickets
Every year right around fall a lot of people start to think about purchasing Super Bowl tickets for the upcoming Super Bowl game in the new year. Yet, the smart buyer should be looking to purchase their tickets as early as possible to save money.
The face value of a 2010 super bowl ticket will be 0, yet it may be hard to find your tickets at that price, unless you are able to locate a discount super bowl package or you are fortunate enough to be selected in the random drawing from the NFL.
The NFL does not sell or issue tickets to travel and ticket companies, Instead, they conduct a drawing of randomly selected entrants to purchase super bowl tickets directly. Each year starting on February 01, and running until June 01, the NFL will accept requests from the general public to purchase tickets. A certified or registered mail entry is limited to one per address. Persons selected in the random drawing will have the opportunity to purchase two super bowl tickets.

Dolphin Stadium in Florida’s Miami Gardens will be the 2010 Super Bowl host, which has a stadium capacity of a little more than 76,000. However the last four times a super bowl was held at Dolphin Stadium, the capacity was never reached, (Super Bowl 23 – 75,129, Super Bowl 29 – 74,107, Super Bowl 33 – 74,803, and Super Bowl 41 – 74,512).
