Interestingly enough, aside from the Atlanta Falcons, Los Angeles Rams, and Los Angeles Chargers, trends in the beer prices don’t carry over to their hot dog prices.
The price difference is much more drastic with hot dogs, as an Atlanta Falcons fan can buy four hot dogs for the price of one hot dog at a Chargers or Rams game.
The most expensive stadium to attend an NFL game: Allegiant Stadium
Based on the average season ticket price, if each person were to buy one hot dog and one beer, the average cost of attending a game at Allegiant Stadium, home of the Las Vegas Raiders, is $588.
The cheapest stadium to attend an NFL game: Mercedes-Benz Stadium
Based on the same logic, the cheapest team stadium to attend in the NFL is Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of the Atlanta Falcons. The total cost including a beer and a hot dog is $204.25.
What is the average cost per touchdown in the NFL?
Most fans attend an NFL game for entertainment, and what’s more entertaining in football than a touchdown? The “average cost per touchdown” provides an intriguing perspective, offering perhaps the best metric to measure the bang for your buck.
This calculation considers the sum of the average price of a season ticket, the cost of one beer and one hot dog, and then divides that total by the average number of touchdowns per game.
