Raiders Reseller Tickets Top Secondary Market Prices In 2022, Just Ahead Of Bucs
By Alan Snel of LVSportsBiz.com
Once again, secondary market ticket prices for Las Vegas Raiders home games are the most expensive in the National Football League.
A year after the Raiders generated the most ticket revenue in the NFL ($119 million), TicketIQ says the team has the most expensive secondary market average price at $691. That’s $10 more than the Tampa Bay Bucs and more than $150 than the next three teams (division rival Denver Broncos, $540), Patriots ($521) and Packers ($517).
Keep in mind that ticket revenue does not include any secondary market tickets. The $119 are based on the original tickets sold from the Raiders to the buyer.
Here’s the TicketIQ chart showing the top 10 most expensive NFL teams for secondary market ticket prices led by the Raiders.
TicketIQ’s Jesse Lawrence noted the 2022 average secondary market ticket price is up from $578 in 2021 and $246 from the last season in Oakland.
Raiders games at Allegiant Stadium are destination events for many NFL fans outside the Las Vegas market, so there’s a busy ticket reseller scene. Raiders owner Mark Davis estimated that 50-55 percent of the season ticket holders are from the Las Vegas market, with the balance from Southern California (12-15 percent), Northern California (12-15 percent) and other locations around the country.
If you look on TicketIQ’s Raiders page, you’ll notice that the starting price to get into Allegiant Stadium is $301 for the home-opener against the Arizona Cardinals on Sept. 18.
On Saturday, the Raiders practiced indoors in their massive fieldhouse at the team HQ across from Henderson Executive Airport only three miles east of Interstate 15 in the south valley.

The Raiders and Jacksonville Jaguars play the first preseason game in the NFL in Canton, Ohio Thursday.
Raiders quarterback Derek Carr said about Kyler Murray that he should just eliminate distractions and go play football.
Carr also noted his hair is not going to be bushy like last year and he declined to say how much time he spends per week looking at film.
Raiders lineman Alex Leatherwood followed Carr and noted there’s “good competition” on the O-Line for starting jobs. He noted since he’s from Alabama he’s used to competition.
Second-year cornerback Nate Hobbs wrapped up the media session. He noted “it’s a blessing and an honor” to compete against Raiders quarterback Derek Carr in practice.
