“Oh but like I have a really good reason for selling my tickets/here are my specific circumstances”
Save it; that Green Bay fan doesn’t give a fuck why your seat was available and neither does anyone else.
Finally a player called out the fan base for this BS. I wish a player did it after the game during the press conference.
I could’ve sworn I heard the go pack go chant on our first drive offensively which is absolutely wild
I’m of two minds of this.
On the one hand: obviously it sucks. Like it just does. It’s embarassing as a fan, and it’s got to be demoralizing as a player.
On the other hand: these tickets–especially the lower bowl–are beyond expensive; hundreds of dollars per ticket plus fees. And to be honest, the product on the field doesn’t live up to that price. It sucks that the Packers fans were so loud on Sunday, but if you want people to spend hundreds–or *thousands–*of dollars to come see you play, you have to give them a reason to show up. So I could just as easily turn this around on DK and say it sucks when I spend hard-earned money on tickets, only to see the team come out and look unprepared and listless, as they frequently have in recent years.
Bro I was there! Show the fuck up next time 12’s. I nearly blew my top, I heard go pack go all around me.
I’m willing to bet a majority are boomers that killed the real estate market with their subprime mortgages and now hog the rental market, are the same fuckers using their season tickets as extra income.
The Seahawks take a cut of the secondary market fees too. They won’t change anything as long as it makes them $$$.
There are traitors amongst us.
Tickets being 200$+ is the reason we don’t have more hawks fans in seats. Who can afford spending a grand on tickets for their family in addition to 100-200$ on food
Everybody is acting like seahawks fans are seeking out away fans. They bought tickets the same way we do.
It’s embarrassing how many folks come here looking for, or talking about their first opportunity to go to game while some east side fucking transplant uses season tickets as a bargaining chip to make a quick buck, in business or resale. I know we as a region represent wealth disparity better than most, lets not let it bleed into our allegiances as well.
Blaming fans, not a great look.
Let’s be realistic here. These are not “12’s” selling their tickets. They are non-fans who own season tickets and see it as a way to make some extra money on the side. I wouldn’t doubt it if some season ticket holders were corporations with no interest in the team at all.
I don’t have season tickets, but five of the six games I’ve gone to the Hawks lost, in embarrassing fashion some of them. That shits not fun. We went, paid the money for good seats, lost our voice even behind 2-3 scores. Fuck you guys, play better.
I was at the Giants game and that was the most disgusting feeling catching the lite rail home. Idk sell my tickets also if I could recoup some of my money.
Dude – win.
Stop charging $300 per seat to sit in the rafters and actual fans might show up🤷🏼♂️
Hey losing 5 games at home doesn’t exactly instill confidence in wanting to attend games either. I live out of state if I could I’d be at every game but this is two way street. Not a season ticket holder fyi
Lumen Field please lower your ticket prices… season ticket holders please lower your resale prices and sell to 12s. Lots of us 12s want to go and cheer on the team but just can’t afford it anymore.
I was there on Sunday. I’ve never seen a takeover like that. The fans remember when the LOB was dominant and Russ was doing his magic and want that feeling. This version will never be able to deliver that. Whinny inconsistent QB, diva turnover machine WR, and a bad D aren’t going to do it. Pay more/Get less season ticket policy is to blame for poor fan attendance.
Wish the Seahawks didn’t play like ass while I was there.
Most important game of the year and no one showed 😭 wish I was a local fan sometimes man

It’s just supply and demand. Visiting fans can afford to pay a high price once per season to see their team rather than a Seahawk fan paying a high price 8 or 9 times. It’s just gonna happen when the popular teams visit. It’s happening in a lot of stadiums.
I wonder how many are actual fans and how many are scalpers that got their hands on season tickets
People with PSLs are the ones selling mostly. It’s fucking garbage.
Wishing we could field an O line that can block opposing defenders to make sure we kept our quarterback from dying.
I genuinely believe that season ticket holders are just selling tickets to primarily make money and have no intentions of going to all the games. IMO I can see a bunch of greedy fucks thinking to themselves “I get free tickets every year because I inherited these season tickets from my grandparents and if I sell 2-3 games worth I make my money back and then some.” I wouldn’t feel bad at all if the team put harsh regulations on ticket resells like only being able to resell at face value or for a max of like 2% profit or whatever.
Tickets to a Seahawks game shouldn’t be an investment for fans in the same way I don’t really believe owners (like the mariners group) should be only focused on profits. Both owners and season ticket holder make their money in other ventures and sports (in my fantasy world) should be primarily a public endeavor.
On prime time too /:
Do people think season ticket holders just started selling tickets this year?Back in 2013 I remember hearing a season ticket holder brag about how much money he was making selling his prime time game tickets. It’s just that back then, it was Seahawk fans buying them.
Probably him and Lockett are the two who can really attest to how bad it’s getting. For sure ownership has to see this as a priority if your own damn players are talking about it.
Maybe DK should buy the tickets and donate them to fans……
Pay for my ticket millionaire
How many more posts will there be about this? It isn’t new folks. I go to every home game and a lot of them have had a ton of away fans for several years now.
