Ticket tracking service @WrestleTix is estimating that WWE
has moved over 44,000 tickets for the Royal Rumble already
just over a week after tickets went on sale to the general
public.
The first count stands at 44,500, with Lucas Oil Field
stadium being set up for around 11,000 more seats. While the
absolute majority of the seats in the stands were sold, the
same cannot b said for those on the floor, where the most
expensive tickets are.
The floor sections remain largely empty and judging from
previous stadium shows, they are the last ones to get sold
simply because they are the ones which cost the most. Floor
seats, so far away from the ring that you wouldn’t be able
to see anything, start from $400 while ringside will cost
you up to $6,000 behind the commentary desks.
The cheapest standard ticket is currently set at $275, while
the cheapest verified resale ticket is $151. That is of
course excluding taxes and fees.
Some sections on the camera side of the stadium have been
opened but Lucas Oil Field holds over 70,000 seats, so there
will be a good chunk of the stadium closed off unless
tickets really take off.
Tickets can be purchased from Ticketmaster.com.
