Falcons announce price cut on season tickets

June 20, 2002

ATLANTA (AP) -- The Atlanta Falcons cut prices on some season tickets Thursday, making it possible to see all 10 home games for as little as $100.

The pricing structure was announced by new owner Arthur Blank as part of a plan to lure more fans to the Georgia Dome, which is rarely sold out.

In addition to the $370 season ticket price for lower-level seats, the Falcons reduced prices on 23,000 seats in the upper deck.

The new prices are $100, $190 and $240 for the two exhibition games and eight regular-season contests. Previously, season tickets in those areas were $330 and $370.

SAN DIEGO (AP) -- Hoping to regain a home-field feeling for their biggest rivalry, the San Diego Chargers are changing their ticket policy for their game against the Oakland Raiders on Dec. 8.

Thousands of Raiders fans, many of whom developed an allegiance during the team's 13 years in Los Angeles, turn out for the Raiders-Chargers game every season. Last year, the sellout crowd was about 50 percent Raiders fans, and Oakland clinched the AFC West title with a 13-6 victory.

Under a new policy announced by the Chargers on Thursday, group purchases of 25 or more tickets for the Raiders game must be accompanied by the purchase of an equal number of tickets for another Chargers game
