PSA Q & A

Question: Do the color variations on Super Bowl tickets affect the value?

Answer: In some cases - yes. For many years, the NFL would designate certain sections at the game with different colors. For example, wheelchair access seating might be a different color than lodge seating and so on. It is certainly not always the case but there are certain years where tickets can be found in a variety of colors. The scarcer the color variation, generally speaking, the more valuable. As ticket collectors become more familiar with these variations, the difference in value should become more apparent in the market.
