I love it. Detroit Lions Revoke Season Tickets From Multiple Fans.

I will admit, I am one of those people who has to buy game tickets for 2 or 3 times their price, because I don't live anywhere near Pittsburgh. So, this should be bad news for me, but in the end, I think it is a good move by an NFL franchise to remove the people who are just buying tickets for the sole purpose of reselling them.

This should free up fans on waiting list who want to actually attend games and not see how much money they can make. I am assuming this is all because the Teams can now track their tickets and find out how many times someone is selling their ticket online through the app.

I feel sorry for the 2 fans they mentioned in the article, but I would love to know just how many season tickets Detroit cancelled this year. Also, when I first saw this on YouTube, i felt slighted by the reporter as he never asked these 2 "Fans" how many games they actually attended last year or the year before.

, "To protect the integrity of our tickets and do our best to serve our fans, the Detroit Lions conduct an annual review of our Lions loyal member accounts. Our internal review of your account activity indicates a level of resales and/or transfer activity inconsistent with personal use of your Detroit Lions game tickets, and we have made the decision not to renew your season ticket membership for the 2025 season. Detroit Lions season ticket memberships are a revocable license, subject to the Detroit Lions ticketing policies."

 

I get the sentiment to the fanbase. That's all cool and stuff. But why? If it turns into one of the companies that's been all the homes and turning them into rental properties, I get how that can effect the integrity. But fans selling to fans? Too many outlets to watch your team on tv nowadays.


I don't have a team near enough to me to worry about going to each home game anyway so I probably don't get it.

 

This is quite a few years ago, but it was discovered that there were more than 100 dead individuals who had Michigan Wolverine season tickets.

 

I wonder if those were lifetime tickets.

I remember years and years ago where Alumni could buy "Lifetime" tickets.
