Letter to the editor: Let the average person see a Super Bowl
The two teams participating in the Super Bowl each year get 17.5% of the tickets. The host city gets 5%. The league gets 24%. The other 30 teams, including the Steelers, each get 1.2%. State Farm Stadium holds 75,000, meaning the Steelers will get 900 tickets. Although the number is small, I think the Steelers should make some available to the season ticketholders. Since the prices on the open market are outrageous, this may be the only way for the average person to ever see a Super Bowl in person.
