After clinching the top seed in the Eastern Conference, the Red Bulls saw an early end to their post-season hopes at the hands of the Houston Dynamo.
The year, they'll hope to return to MLS Cup contention, but they'll have to handle their business at Red Bull Arena first. Now, we will break down the 5 priciest games on the Red Bulls schedule below:
- 9/20 vs Seattle Sounders FC
Average ticket price: $60, Get-in price: $22
The most expensive game of the season comes in a late season duel with Clint Dempsey and always popular Sounders. It's currently 11% higher than the Red Bull season average of $54 on the secondary market and the only chance to catch Sounders tickets in NJ this season.
- 7/12 vs Columbus Crew
Average ticket price: $59, Get-in price: $22
Despite missing the playoffs last season, the Crew make up 2 of the 5 most expensive games on the Red Bulls schedule. The first comes at a 9% premium above the season average.
- 7/19 vs San Jose Earthquakes
Average ticket price: $57, Get-in price: $23
Another western conference team makes the list with the mid-July visit from San Jose. The average asking price on the resale market is $57.
- 10/19 vs Columbus Crew
Average ticket price: $57, Get-in price: $22
The regular season home finale makes the cut with a 5% premium over the season average for NY Red Bulls tickets.
- 9/6 vs Sporting Kansas City
Average ticket price: $57, Get-in price: $26
Rounding out the top 5 is the 2013 Eastern Conference Champions Sporting Kansas City. Despite an overall premium of just 5%, the get-in price (cheapest ticket available) is the most expensive of the season.
The Red Bulls feature a very consistent secondary market with no game exceeding an average ticket price of $60. It's extremely rare that you'd be unable to find quality tickets for under $25. The season's cheapest game comes March 30th vs Chivas USA. The average asking price is just $42, with cheapest ticket currently listed at $15.
