Remember when attending a pro basketball game was a relatively inexpensive night out? Neither do we — and it looks like inflation is once again upping the ever-increasing cost of going to see our favorite teams live.
On Wednesday, sports betting publication Bookies.com reported the average cost of attending an NBA game at every participating stadium for the upcoming 2024-25 season. To compile the data, Bookies.com observed ticket prices available as of October 15 for home games through official ticket sources, avoiding secondary market prices. In addition to the venue’s cheapest tickets, the cost of a hot dog, a 16-ounce domestic beer, and a 20-ounce soda were factored into the average for each stadium. The amounts were then scaled up to determine the overall price it would cost to accommodate a family of four.
