• Super Bowl 2024 tickets are extremely expensive, ranging from $2,000 to $37,000.
• Retired football icon Rob Gronkowski discussed the high cost of tickets and the need for NFL players to be compensated better.
• Taylor Swift attended the Super Bowl in a luxury suite to support her boyfriend and his team, the Kansas City Chiefs.
Here is what happened:
The Super Bowl 2024 has drawn widespread attention largely due to the high cost of tickets. With prices ranging from $2,000 for face-value tickets to $37,000 for last-minute tix on resale site StubHub, many NFL fans, including some players, struggle to afford the event. Former football icon Rob “Gronk” Gronkowski expressed his dismay at the price, stating, “It’s pretty ridiculous.” He called for better compensation for players in the playoffs, especially those going to the Super Bowl. Gronkowski remarked, “I played in the game before where I brought family and friends to the game, and I actually lost about $20,000 playing the Super Bowl.”
Taylor Swift, a frequent attendee at the games of her boyfriend, Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce, was spotted at the 2024 Super Bowl. Her attendance has drawn criticism from some NFL fans and has been defended by both Gronkowski and fellow Grammy winner Adele, with the latter stating, “I think I want the Chiefs to win just because Taylor Swift goes for them, and all of you that are complaining about Taylor being at the game, get a f–king life. It’s her f–king boyfriend!” Notably, Taylor was in attendance with friends and family, including Blake Lively and Travis’ family members.
A less favorable issue of the prestigious event has become the high cost of attending, which dissuades a considerable portion of NFL fans. Nonetheless, the star-studded nature of the event was displayed through Taylor Swift and her entourage’s appearance at the Super Bowl.
