Vikings to release limited single game tickets on Thursday

Boasting a 99% season ticket retention rate, the Minnesota Vikings are releasing limited single-game tickets on Thursday morning.

The Minnesota Vikings have had an excellent customer base in terms of season tickets. Per The Star Tribune’s Ben Goessling, they have a 99% retention rate on season tickets, which is a great number on the business side.

With season tickets being full, the team is releasing a limited amount of single-game tickets on Thursday, July 27th at 10 am central time.

The team put a press release on their website with minimum prices and where to buy them.

Single-game tickets for preseason (as low as $15) and regular season (as low as $72) contests will be available exclusively online via Ticketmaster. All ticket sales require credit card payment. There will be no box office or Ticketmaster outlet sales offered.

Cowboys scrap 2020 season tickets, college kickoff at AT&T Stadium cancelled

The home of the Dallas Cowboys will not offer season tickets for 2020, nor will it host the AdvoCare Classic between Alabama and USC.

NFL training camps are underway, with 32 clubs trying to go about business as usual and hoping that the precautions and protocols they’ve put in place will allow them to play out the 2020 season that’s set to start in under six weeks.

Little by little, though, the realities of COVID-19 are seeping into the regularly-scheduled programming. The Cowboys this week announced sweeping alternative options for 2020 season tickets and single-game tickets at AT&T Stadium. In addition, one of the first major college football games of the 2020 season that was set to be played on the Cowboys’ home field has now been scrapped.

This year’s AdvoCare Classic was slated to be the season opener for both Alabama and USC, but both the SEC and Pac-10 have since declared that their schools will play conference-only schedules this season. The cancellation nixes what would have been a heavily-attended and widely-watched game on college football’s opening weekend.

The Cowboys’ home opener is on the books for September 20 against Atlanta. And while there has been no announced attendance cap- as several other NFL teams have made public– the club has informed fans that season tickets for the 2020 season will not be made available.

 

Current season ticket holders can, however, opt in for the first opportunity to purchase a limited number of tickets for a limited number of games this season. The single-game tickets they receive may be in different locations from their normal seats.

Single-game tickets will be available through a third party vendor, SeatGeek.com, but, according to the team, “we expect inventory to be extremely limited.”

All fans attending Cowboys home games- or any NFL game in 2020- will be required to wear a face covering.

Season ticket sales are set to resume in 2021. Cowboys season ticket holders will reportedly retain their tenure, seat location, and associated benefits.

Also, as per the team website, “In light of the changes to the 2020 season, we are excited to announce that the Dallas Cowboys will be adding an additional year to the term of seat option agreement(s). This will include an added year of seat location, benefits, and season ticket holder perks associated with their agreement. No seat option payment will be required for the additional year.” This bonus year is ostensibly a make-good on the 2020 schedule of games, with no refunds allowed for the upcoming season.

Season ticket holders who have already paid their 2020 bill will have the option to apply the credit to future ticket purchases or receive a refund. Fans who have already purchased single-game tickets will be able to get a credit or refund through licensed sellers.
