2024 Patriots Season: Upcoming Opponent: Next Up: vs Seahawkswhat percentage of holders win the lottery?
My family has three different sections of seat and have not won any in any sb.
No luck in 339. Nor have I ever got the chance to buy.
According to the stadium's website, "there are 63,400 permanent seats with the capability to expand to 73,000 seats for mega events."
The Patriots are alloted 17.5% of the available tickets, or 12,775 tickets. When the Seahawks went to the Super Bowl two years ago, they divided 75% of their allotment to season ticket holders. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/sports/2002756372_hawktickets23.html
If the Patriots do the same, the Season Ticket holders should get 9581 tickets, or 4790 accounts get the option of buying two tickets each.
I have no idea how many season ticket holders there actually are. The Gillette Stadium capacity is 68,756. I'll guess that 64,000 of those tickets go to season ticket holders. The rest to visiting team, tickets that go on sale to the public, sponsors, and whatever else. If the average season ticket holder has 3 seats (i think the most common is some have 2 and others have 4), then there are a total of 21,333 season ticket holder accounts. Sounds very low though.
That would mean that 4790 of the 21,333 accounts get the option to buy two tickets, or 22.5%.
No one that I know has had the chance to buy tickets. Sitting in Section 339, no one that sits around me has either. I believe I heard somewhere that the ticket selection process is weighted by how long you've had tickets to reward the long-time fans. As much as I would like to go to the game, I think that is only fair that someone who has had their tickets for 30 years gets to go over someone that's had them for only 5 years.
