Seeing your team play just ONE round of the NCAA Tournament. March Madness prices are extremely competitive unless you’re a student or booster and get reduced price tickets directly through the university.
I’ve never actually had to buy March Madness tickets because 1) FSU doesn’t make the tourney all that often and 2) when FSU has made it to the dance I’ve been given tickets by friends or family. But, given how deep and talented FSU is this season I have been curious as to what it would cost me this year if I were to try and see the Florida State Men’s Basketball Team play every game. I don’t actually envision FSU winning it all. It would be fucking awesome for me if they did, but I can’t earnestly see it happening. But, like I said, I’ve been curious about what it would cost to see my alma mater play in every game if they were to make it all the way to the finals.
As it turns out, the bros over at GameTimeUnited crunched the numbers for several teams to see what it would cost to watch your favorite basketball team play in every round, with travel (airfare/hotels) included.
They ran these numbers for the Kansas Jayhawks (most likely to make the finals), St. Mary’s Gaels (cheapest), and the Oregon Ducks (most expensive trip to the finals for any fan).
Here’s what that looks like for the team that has the cheapest path to the finals, albeit an EXTREMELY UNLIKELY one, and for the Oregon Ducks who have the most expensive path to the finals.
This is for St. Marys (California):
Here’s what it looks like for the Oregon Ducks:
