Seahawks to slightly raise season ticket prices
The Seattle Seahawks are asking fans who are renewing season tickets to pay a little bit more in 2010 even though the team is coming off consecutive losing seasons.
The Seahawks recently sent season-ticket holders renewal information that asks for an average of a 3 percent increase in ticket prices over 2009. The largest per-seat renewal increase is $5 per game.
Seattle did not increase season-ticket prices in 2009, but did charge approximately 6,000 new season-ticket holders more for their seats.
In 2010, the team will have two levels of renewal pricing: one for those who held tickets before 2009 and those who bought season tickets for the first time last season.
Seattle continues to have a waiting list for season tickets that goes back to 2006, when the team capped season-ticket sales at 61,000.
