Sunday’s NFC championship game between the Washington Commanders and Philadelphia Eagles is the hottest ticket in the country, according to several online marketplaces.
The cheapest ticket to the 3 p.m. game — a standing-room-only spot — clocked in at more than $500 on TickPick, StubHub and Ticketmaster on Wednesday. TickPick pegged the median ticket price at $1,310, making the showdown at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia the most expensive NFC championship game in NFL history.
Tickets went on sale at 10 a.m. Tuesday and were quickly gobbled up. The only remaining tickets are available through resellers.
The NFC East division rivals will square off for the third time this season, with a trip to the Super Bowl on the line. Though the Eagles and Commanders split their regular-season tilts, history favors Philadelphia.
Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels is just the sixth rookie signal-caller to reach a conference title game and the first to do so without a top-three scoring defense. None of the other first-year passers made it to the Super Bowl.
National sportsbooks favor the Eagles by six points.
