In a city where the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/censusreporter.org\/profiles\/16000US0644000-los-angeles-ca\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">median monthly household income is a little over $5,500<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, the lofty price tag means die-hard fans looking for a once-in-a-lifetime experience have to pay prices that even exceed even the city\u2019s exorbitant housing costs. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For small business owner Philip Asuncion, a ticket to watch the franchise he\u2019s supported for over four decades meant sacrificing money toward improving his family\u2019s home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI want to put a driveway (in my home), so I thought, \u2018Money for the driveway or Super Bowl?\u2019\u201d Asuncion said. \u201cMy wife said Super Bowl.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Asuncion admitted that he purchased his lone ticket online on Friday morning for around $4,000, which is 100 times more expensive than tickets to the Super Bowl Experience he attended with his son and grandson two days prior to the game.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For father-son duo Paul and Gage Leon, Super Bowl LVI presented a special bonding opportunity as they have the unique distinction of living in Los Angeles and rooting for the Rams and Bengals, respectively. But Paul Leon said attending the game was never really an option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201c(Gage) told me it was $6,000, so we did not consider going to the game,\u201d Paul Leon said. He said although fees are cheaper now, he would\u2019ve only pulled the trigger on tickets at around $1,000.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For Bengals fan Dylan Del Rio, the ticket price was also the reason he couldn\u2019t justify going to the team\u2019s first Super Bowl appearance in his lifetime despite the game being in his city.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cI think they just outpriced the regular fan,\u201d Del Rio said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While the Super Bowl ticket prices may be too steep for many of the NFL\u2019s most passionate fans, pricing structures in any industry are generally influenced by supply and demand. Ticket supply will always be limited by the stadium\u2019s capacity, and it\u2019s clear that the demand for tickets has maintained its strength despite the rising ticket prices as the Super Bowl constantly <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.liveabout.com\/super-bowl-attendance-1335470\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">fills stadiums designed for over 70,000 fans<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is largely due to the corporate clients that make up a large part of the Super Bowl\u2019s attendees, as has been the case since they helped drive the success of Super Bowl II. According to Zach Yabroff, founder of Zinc Agency, which provides Super Bowl ticketing and hospitality for corporate clients, these corporations could range from Fortune 500 companies to smaller firms that use the Super Bowl as an incentive for customers or employees. But Yabroff said regardless of an affiliation with a company, the simple truth is many of the people who attend the Super Bowl are the \u201chigh net worth, wealthy individuals.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cThe best tickets we sell, they&#8217;re bought by individuals that just have unlimited resources, where there isn&#8217;t a price tag that they can&#8217;t afford,\u201d Yabroff said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As long as there are going to be enough people willing to purchase tickets to sell out stadiums for the biggest live sporting event in America, the game\u2019s ticket prices will stay as is \u2014 far from the reach of the majority of the NFL\u2019s fans. Like Asuncion, they\u2019ll have to wait decades to decide whether sacrificing an arm and a leg is worth a<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">chance<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">to watch their team hoist the Lombardi Trophy from the nosebleeds.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cIf they win, the $4,000 is worth it,\u201d Asuncion said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Colin Salao is a sports media graduate student at Medill.
