There are a few media outlets picking the Oakland Raiders as a team to watch that could make a significant jump this season. With a solid defense and the growth of quarterback Derek Carr with his new weapon Amari Cooper (selected fourth overall in the NFL Draft), the Raiders seem to be on track to snap their playoff drought that dates back to the 2002 season, when they lost in the Super Bowl to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Waiting for the NFL season to begin is tough business, especially in the dog days of summer in late-July and August. Fortunately, the Raiders have very affordable preseason ticket options that fans can take advantage of to get a headstart on the upcoming season. Below is the breakdown of the secondary market ticket for the Raiders’ four preseason contests.
8/14/2015 | Oakland Raiders vs. St. Louis Rams | O.co Coliseum | Average Price: $43 | Get-in Price: $7
8/22/2015 | Minnesota Vikings vs. Oakland Raiders | TCF Bank Stadium | Average Price: $38 | Get-in Price: $4
8/30/2015 | Oakland Raiders vs. Arizona Cardinals | O.co Coliseum | Average Price: $38 | Get-in Price: $5
9/03/2015 | Seattle Seahawks vs. Oakland Raiders | CenturyLink Field | Average Price: $130.38 | Get-in Price: $55
Good news for Oakland fans is that their least expensive preseason game is at home at O.co Coliseum against the Arizona Cardinals. Fans from out of town can use Hipmunk.com for Oakland flight deals to take in an inexpensive Raiders game before the season begins. For those fans more in the middle of the country, the Raiders’ least expensive road game against the Minnesota Vikings has a get-in price of $4 and the same average ticket price as the least expensive Raiders home games. Flights to Minneapolis can be booked with a few clicks to get to TCF Bank Stadium.
The Raiders won two of their four preseason games last season, winning both at home and losing one at TCF Bank Stadium, where they play again this year. With three games with get-in prices starting under $10, attending Raiders games during the preseason is a fan-friendly and affordable option for fans looking to fill their pro football fix.
