High-priced tickets

With the Chicago Cubs going for their first World Series championship since 1908 and the Cleveland Indians going for their first World Series championship since 1948, tickets on the secondary market are seeing a notable bump.

A ticket to Tuesday’s Game One at Progressive Field was averaging $3,125 on TicketIQ.

While this seems expensive, tickets for the games at Wrigley Field are much higher. Game 3 tickets at Wrigley are being sold for an average of $3,000 on StubHub and $3,423 on SeatGeek.

“It’s totally mind-boggling,” TicketIQ founder Jesse Lawrence said. “I don’t think we’ll see anything like this again.”
