Brett Favre has come out of retirement once again, this time to play QB for the Minnesota Vikings, and the fans response? They can’t seem to get enough.
According to the Associated Press, in the 24 hours following Favre’s announcement at Tuesday’s press conference at Winter Park, the Vikings’s training camp, more than 3,200 season tickets and 11,000 single game tickets have been sold. Ticket sellers are having trouble keeping up. “It’s been pretty crazy the last couple of days,” Ticket King’s Cortney Storsved told TicketNews. “We have been swamped. It’s been huge [ever since] it was announced that [Brett Favre] was flying to Minnesota. The Vikings’ Web site actually crashed.”
And ticket prices have climbed as high as fan enthusiasm, with some sellers reporting huge jumps in prices just hours after Favre’s move to Minnesota became clear. Tickets that days ago averaged in the mid $100 range now hover at the low $300 mark. And the most sought-after tickets are, of course, for Favre’s return to Lambeau field when his new team meets the Packers on November 1. RazorGator's offerings for this match up rose over $500 in one day, from $441.48 to $975.56. At 48 hours post-announcement, RazorGator’s lowest priced tickets for the game start at $387, with those for the Vikings’s October 5 home game against the Packers starting at $225

Tennessee Titans and Ticketmaster struggle with TicketExchange
Fans of the Tennessee Titans looking to buy or sell tickets on the teams TicketExchange site run by Ticketmaster are currently out of luck due to an undisclosed technical problem.
From a team standpoint, the timing of the problem could not be worse, as officials ramp up the media blitz to sell tickets, including those on the team's TicketExchange site. The Titans, like other teams in the National Football League signed on with Ticketmaster in 2007 to resell tickets on the secondary market.
Considering the propensity for sellouts among NFL teams, and the tough economy, many fans rely heavily on Ticketmaster's TicketExchange not only to buy tickets but to sell them to help recoup some of their outlay for season tickets. Every day that the Titans TicketExchange is down potentially helps secondary ticket brokers who would gladly pick up spare Titans tickets, especially since the team made the playoffs last season and return a strong lineup for this year.
