As the season, and the team, unravels apace, so goes secondary market ticket prices to Sunday's game between Washington's NFL team and the St. Louis Rams.
They can be had for as little as $4. If you don't mind standing, $3.
So says online ticket broker SeatGeek, which also notes the average price being paid on the secondary market for a seat to Sunday's game is $31 — the lowest price for any Washington NFL game the past two seasons and the cheapest ticket to any of the team's regular-season home games since at least 2009.
The $4 resales on the secondary market are 94 percent off the face value of the $69 seats.
SeatGeek spokesman Connor Gregoire said the data the company has accumulated on Sunday's game is showing a "woeful demand" for tickets.
Not surprising, considering the team's 3-9 record and the FedEx Field locker-room scuttlebutt that says coach Jay Gruden is finished with his once-star quarterback Robert Griffin III and wants him traded.
Some other sad data, via SeatGeek (note season-ticket face values for standing-room tickets are $34, with seats ranging from $69-$84 in the upper deck and $109-$139 in the lower level):
- Lower-level tickets are going for $25 each in Section 135, Row 2.
- "Dream seats" behind Washington's sideline for Sunday's game are going for $91 each. They usually are had for several hundred dollars.
- Tickets to Sunday's game are selling for an average of $31. That's lower than tickets for Washington's preseason games the last two years, which sold on the secondary market for an average of $41 to $36. Standing room tickets never dipped below $7.
- Washington has some colleagues in the ticket-price cellar. Regular-season resale tickets dipped below $40 for the Vikings, Rams and Raiders, too.
