    DC Defenders XFL Season Tickets

    Club level a few rows from the field, 5 Home Games, All Inclusive Food and Beverage $625 ($125/ticket per game). Pretty wild, especially in the DC metro. DC United tickets cost 2-3x/per game at same venue (Audi Field which is a phenomenal place to watch live sports). The Rock is a Shrewd business man. I think it is a wise investment as your Season Tickets lock you in for same price in '24. No doubt can get face value+ resale if miss a game or two. Who knows how the quality of the games will be, although I didn't mind the last iteration and the USFL even entertained me last Spring.

    Wouldn't that have been something else? I still call the NFL club the Redskins 90% of the time, so I guess there would have been some confusion as I believe most still do. Honestly, I think they have a legit chance to win the Championship.

    Yes. Also, a very nice Fanduel Sportsbook inside the Audi stadium that is only accessible to people holding a "Club" level ticket on game days. So that is a nice added perk. The book has a Patio overhanging the field you can watch the game from if you prefer over your seats, and of course a great bar and Sportsbook area just inside.

    A lot easier to get a read after a week or two than NFL too. Of course lower limits, but I am not betting more than a few hundred anyway.

    not sure about that, the comparable "non-club" tix on the other side are $40 face and might end up being tough to sell

    who is going with you? is everyone gonna really average over $85 worth of food/drinks every game? i've had suites and my kids would grab a bag of chips and a mountain dew for my $500/ticket

    it's more fun to be all-inclusive

    I hear you. DC is very Fair Weather and Status based though. People want to be out and about, doing something, and showing off. "Club" seats, All Inclusive, and Access to the Book/Patio carries a lot more value than $85 for the people with more money than sense around here IMO. If this team is even decent they will come and spend up. See the videos of Beer Snakes from XFL 2.0 that got shortened by Covid. My intent will be to see 2-3 games and hopefully sell the others at a price that will cover the ones I go to. The one thing I am concerned about is the timing. Most games are Sunday evenings. Last time most were Sat or Sun day games, so lots pf ppl went day drinking which is huge around here. Not sure about the motivation to hit an 8pm Sunday game when they need to be at work 7am Monday.....

    Great deal. It’s a smart model to keep the seats/food/beverage at an all inclusive price that is affordable. Get some butts in seats. NFL/major college games have mostly priced your average family of 4 out.

    Agreed. Very low threshold for appearance of exclusivity and status. Good way to build loyalty and a brand IMO. Going to a local low-end restaurant costs over $100 these days in the DC burbs. For a bit more you can make a night of it, see an event, interact with other fans etc.

    . I am a horrible Golfer JJ. I'll give you $100 to come play my local 9-hole Par 3. Will probably take us 3 hours and a Case to finish the round.

    Totally agree. I purchased 4 Las Vegas Desert Dogs Lacrosse tickets for around $1200 for the season. About 10 games. It’s a great night out with the family and lots of fan engagement, entertainment, live sports, etc… Gretzky, Steve Nash, Dustin Johnson and Joseph Tsai (Nets) own the team and they 100% get affordable family fun. And yes… restaurants are priced out of control too. I’d rather have some nachos and a beer and hang with a rowdy bunch at a lacrosse game.

    This is good news. I wouldn’t want The Rock to stomp a mud hole in your ass on live TV.
