Orange Bowl tickets still available for Michigan vs. Georgia
SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (FOX 2) - Need a winter getaway and you're also a Michigan fan looking to see the Wolverines play in the College Football Playoff for the first time ever? Good news! Tickets are still available for the Orange Bowl.
When Michigan and Georgia play Friday night in Miami Gardens, Fla, you could be there! Tickets on Stubhub are still being listed and, while some are absurdly priced at over $77,000 for end zone corner seats (terrible spot), you can still get some upper deck and lower bowl seats for a reasonable amount.
You can get two tickets in the upper end zone for as low as $141 each. That's not so bad! Those seats were in row 15, by the way, while some seats in similar sections but much farther back are going for more.
Of course, those seats may not be there by the time you look. but there are plenty of options around for under $200 apiece.
