It is Reggie Miller Bobblehead Night at Bankers Life Fieldhouse, pushing up the cost of tickets on the secondary market for tonight’s game with the Indiana Pacers vs the Milwaukee Bucks.
Basketball defines Indiana, and on the professional level, Reggie Miller defined the Indiana Pacers in the 1990s. This very website’s name was inspired by perhaps his greatest moment.
It only makes sense that for 90s Night — one of the seven Decade Games of the team’s 50th season — is Reggie Miller Bobblehead night. Everyone that comes to Bankerslife Fieldhouse tonight for the Indiana Pacers vs the Milwaukee Bucks will get one.
TicketIQ still has seats available on the secondary market but making tonight “Miller Time” has made it one of the most popular games of the season.
What has the love for Reggie Miller done to the cost of tickets? Let’s take a look at some of the numbers according to TicketIQ.
- As of February 10th, the cheapest tickets on the secondary market were $29.
- This is the 2nd most expensive “Get-in” price for a Pacers game this season, just behind the November 21st visit from Golden State which had a $30 “get-in” price.
- The average list price per ticket is $75.87 & Average sales price is $76.20
- The most expensive ticket listed is in Section 14 Row 3 at $300.
Only the Golden State Warriors game in November was in more demand, though the game against LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers earlier this week was popular, too.
Tickets are still available for tonight as the Pacers will be welcoming back some of the players from that era as while as celebrating their accomplishments.
