Just confirmed - lower bowl ticket prices will increase this year

[chess]

Mt tickets in section 140 are also $130.90 per seat, or $2618.00 for two seats.

Yup I have 4 seats... Mine is double that... doh ha..> I moved from Club this year to lower level.... man...

I was told by a club rep that zone D is now $3700, which they advertised for $3500 last year. I'm not sure if anyone paid that though. I paid $199 per ticket last year for Zone D.

Just got the invoice. $40 increse per seat. For 1 seat I am now paying 1487.30 (parking not included).
Sect 142, Row 8.

I wish that we would have had some warning. that is $400 more per seat than last season.

It is all negotiable. My dad just negotiated zone d for less than 2K a seat.

Are there now two sideline price zones in the lower level? I could understand an increase between the 20 yardlines, but I haven't read of such.

Yes, 704 seats got a huge price increase:

That's really surprising that they would do it for that price so early. When I negotiated it last year is was just before the season started. Good for him! I paid less than $2k last year (and paid for NO PRESEASON games and got 2 free tickets to the Bengals game.) They wanted me to renew this year for $3500 per seat. No thanks to that.

Okay. How is it that you're paying $148.73 per game, when the guy in the link above is paying $152.70 per game? Both LL mid field.

Sorry, not sure what is considered terrace level seating. I thought you meant all 200 level non-OV seats. I was specifically referring to home side 200 level seats, where there are no OV seats. These are the ones that were $99 plus tax last year. 200 level sideline seats on home side did NOT go up the same as 100 level sideline seats did. Sections 205-238 are now $119.90, whereas section 105-138 are $130.90. Sorry for the confusion.

Okay. So as far as we know, the 200 level general seating only went up 10%.

Sorry if this has been mentioned but I did not see. Has the tax been added back into the ticket cost? That is how it appears on my account. price for shipping, a price for parking, and a price for the tickets with no mention of tax. The three add up to my invoice amount.

It appears the tax is still itemized - it's just not itemized online. They wouldn't bother with cents otherwise.

section 117 went up 10.5%

That's total cost with 1 green parking pass, S&H fee. Does not include online processing fee or tax.

Okay, this is contrary to conclusions drawn from other posts because 117 is a sidelines section, but it appears it's priced as an endzone section now.

Thanks for sharing that, I was not aware. They said 704 accounts, so the actual number of seats could range from 1400 5000 LL midfields. The STH bracket taking the biggest hit is likely comprised of RFK legacies. We know Snyder hasn't moved any GAs into the LL mids, meanwhile the team has reclaimed many of those seats for the TD Club, etc. It sucks for the long time legacies in those seats, but I don't blame Danny.

If I were a legacy, GA STH lucky enough to own a pair of midfield lowers, I'd let them go this year. After the preseason hit, I would be afraid I'd have a difficult time recovering costs if I couldn't make it to a regular season game that featured a lower quality opponent. The lower level sidelines WERE the only STs still worth owning IMO.

I never even caught the "704 ticket holders" part of that - pretty slick actually. Some of those people could have 4 tickets, so that's a lot more than I originally though. Creative wording in my opinion. At first glance, I was thinking 704 seats.

I wouldn't be surprised if several of those accounts hold a large number of seats per account, even dozens. There are still ST accounts left over from old DC area businesses associated with previous owners of the team. The few people I've known who still have prime GAs at FedEx all have old family tie-ins to Jack Kent Cooke, or Edward Bennett Williams, and that was how they got the seats way back when.

I'm very nosey about people's STs, especially when the seats are prime.

[Skinsfan1311]

can anyone find out what happened to the upper deck seats?

Okay. So it looks like upper level sidelines below row 16 went up $5.50 to $92.40.

Yes...that's what happened to us in section 431 row 2. That doesn't bother me too much....we love our seats. It's the $5.00 increase in parking that chafes my nuts. Seriously.

[skinfan2k]

I think i might have to invest in those SROs this year. Those were the best deals

[hail2skins]

I guess I was right in my prediction about the LL going up to $150.....for 704 account holders, anyway.

Would these "prime" lower-level locations be in the area where Tailgate/Touchdown Club members are seated?

Finally, I would think it would suck to have to pay $150/game and have to stand all game, which is what these folks (or whoever they sell them to) will have to do, unless they're high enough up in the lowers to avoid that nonsense. Heck, its going to suck for the rest of the folks who are now paying $130 for the priviledge.

[RFKFedEx]

The team won't say where the 704 accounts are located, but you'd think the highest zone has to be near midfield. The TD Club offers LL seating between the 20 ydlines, while the Tailgate Club is mostly in the endzones. We've read of a few long time TGC accounts having relocated as close as the 15 ydlns in recent years when STH turnover was high. The TDC seating began on the visitors side only, but I'm pretty sure they'll put you on the home side these days considering the price.

It may have been a coincidence, but I seem to remember the TDC being born around the same time when Snyder revoked hundreds of LL, Midfield STs from the Washington Post.

I just dont understand fans who say they are fine with the increase this year. This was the first year in the past few that Danny would be even allowed to increase the costs. Fedex was relatively cheap compared to other stadiums. If he increased the price in any other year he would be been killed for it
