Looking for Super Bowl tickets? You pay, they play

Welcome to the Super Bowl, where demand always beats supply and the teams don't really matter.

The NFL championship game is one of the largest sports and entertainment spectacles in the world. The teams aren't exactly afterthoughts, but tickets are going to move quickly no matter how popular the contenders are.

In fact, the number printed after the dollar sign on the front of a Super Bowl ticket has about as much in common with the price paid by its holder as the point spread does with the final.
