The "get-in" ticket price for the highly anticipated Week 2 matchup between the Detroit Lions and Buffalo Bills has officially hit a staggering $887.40, according to Adam Schefter. The contest, scheduled for Thursday, Sept. 17, will serve as the regular-season debut for Buffalo’s brand-new Highmark Stadium.
The prime-time Thursday Night Football clash is already seeing historic demand as fans clamor to be part of the first official game in the $1.7 billion venue. Per Schefter and ticketing data from Ticketmaster, the median price for a seat at the home opener is currently hovering around $2,055. High-end listings for premium seating have reportedly reached as much as $12,325.
The matchup features two of the NFL's heavyweight contenders, further driving the secondary market surge. The Bills, led by superstar quarterback Josh Allen, will open their new era against a Lions team that has established itself as one of the elite rosters in the NFC. The league's decision to place the stadium debut in a national spotlight underscores the massive interest in the new facility.
