- Super Bowl tickets, as mentioned, are not easy to come by. The majority of the tickets are first distributed amongst the participating teams, the other NFL teams and the tam hosting the event. The National Football League teams participating in the Super Bowl get about 75 percent of the Super Bowl Tickets. The hosting team gets around 9 percent of the tickets. Other NFL teams, who are not participating in the Super Bowl, are given around 1 percent of the tickets. The National Football League gives the remaining 25 percent of tickets to season ticket holders, VIPs, sponsors, media, charities, companies affiliated with the NFL, and the Host Committee.
- The National Football League sells tickets to the general public only through the Super Bowl Random Drawing process. You cannot get Super Bowl tickets any other way. Keep in mind that the National Football League does not sell tickets to ticket vendors or agents, so if you find anyone offering you any they're probably out to stiff you. Only about 500 pairs of Super Bowl tickets are available through the Random Drawing and practically every single American Football fan out there will be scrambling for them, so be prepared for a very stiff competition. Each ticket costs around $400.
- The Super Bowl Random Drawing may seem like a lottery, but actually there is no fee for participation. You can send in only one request per household; if you send in more than requests, they will simply discard them.
- In order to participate, you must write – or better yet, type out - a letter requesting tickets to the NFL and send it either by certified postal mail or registered postal mail to -
