Packers Warn Season-Ticket Holders Amid Controversial Resale Crackdown

Packers crack down on season-ticket resales to ensure a genuine gameday experience for loyal fans.

Being a Packers season ticket holder is a special privilege, but it comes with responsibilities. While your stock certificate is yours to keep, your season tickets could be another story if you’re flipping them on the secondary market.

The Packers recently issued a friendly yet firm reminder to their season ticket holders about the importance of attending games. Craig Benzel, the Packers' vice president of sales and business development, emphasized the crucial role these fans play in creating the electric atmosphere at Lambeau Field.

“Our Season Ticket Holders are central to Lambeau Field’s significant homefield advantage and gameday experience,” he noted. The message is clear: if your main goal in purchasing season tickets is to resell them, you might want to reconsider your strategy.

While there isn’t a specific threshold for how many resales will lead to losing your renewal rights, the Packers have made it known that repeatedly selling tickets could impact your status without further notice.

With a waiting list exceeding 155,000 eager fans, the Packers aim to keep as many seats as possible filled with their own supporters. Unlike some teams that depend on visiting fans to fill empty seats, the Packers have no such issue.

Lambeau Field is a fortress of green and gold, and they intend to keep it that way. So, if you're thinking of selling to someone who might show up in rival colors, be prepared for potential consequences.
