Chargers Sell All Available Season Tickets For Upcoming Season At StubHub Center

The Chargers yesterday announced that they had "sold all available season tickets for the upcoming season at the 30,000-seat StubHub Center," according to Woike & Klein of the L.A. TIMES. A Chargers official said that the franchise "won't make detailed ticket sales figures available until closer to the season." The Chargers said that they also have "placed a hold on several thousand additional tickets for player, opposing team, community relations and promotional use." Chargers Chair Dean Spanos said, "I’ve had maybe four or five different owners ask me about it, and they seem very interested in seeing what’s going to happen this year. There really isn’t going to be a bad seat in the place." Because of the "scarcity of seats, the team charged premium prices." The most expensive tickets, closest to the Chargers bench, "cost $3,750 for two exhibitions and eight home games." Three other seating sections "cost more than $2,000." Only one section, the north end zone, was "priced at less than $1,000." The average single-game ticket "costs $192" (L.A. TIMES, 3/28). CBSSPORTS.com's Will Brinson wrote the "big catch here, of course, is that the Chargers are playing all their games at the StubHub Center, which has a capacity of under 30,000." This would "classify as a 'humblebrag' except there’s not much humble about it." It does, however, "classify as a shot fired right back at the city of San Diego" (CBSSPORTS.com, 3/27).
