Michigan vs. UConn
$17K+ Ticket Sold For Title Game
Published
The demand for tickets to the NCAA championship game is soaring through the roof … and TMZ Sports has learned that one fan even dropped over $17,000 for a single seat to watch the UConn Huskies and Michigan Wolverines duke it out in person.
We’re told the ticket sold via the popular ticket buying and selling platform, SeatGeek … a massive price to witness the action Monday night at the Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
That single ticket was $17,022.96 … and Max Meyer, SeatGeeks’ Senior Content Analyst, told us the demand is up by 20% compared to last year’s NCAA title game.
“That kind of spend underscores just how much this game means to fans,” Meyer told us on Monday … “especially with Michigan chasing its first title in nearly 40 years and UConn looking to cement a modern dynasty under coach Dan Hurley.”
We’re also told 27% of tickets sold are coming from the Michigan area, even though many fans are already camping outside Ann Arbor bars ahead of the game. Only 2% are being purchased from Connecticut.
It seems most Huskies fans are expected to stay in the Tri-State area and on the Storrs, Connecticut campus, where preparations for potential celebrations are already underway, with increased security and lamp post removals.
It’s going to be an exciting night — in Indy, CT, and Michigan!
