Wanna sit with Jack and Andy Garcia and Spike Lee and all the beautiful people at Staples Center for Thursday's deciding game of the NBA Finals? Well, if you do, you're not the only one and you'd better be prepared to pay through the nose for it.StubHub.com is reporting that demand for the Lakers-Celtics title tilt is the highest in its 10-year history, according to the Los Angeles Times.
And the cost of a ticket is commensurate with the interest, according to the Times. StubHub reported that the average asking price for a seat at Staples was more than $1,100, double the cost for a ticket for last year's Finals between the Lakers and Orlando Magic.
Before the Lakers smashed Boston in Game 6 to force Thursday's ultimate contest, Fansnap.com said it was getting requests of $1,260 per ticket.
After the game, a spokesman told the Times that the price jumped to nearly $1,600 a seat. The spokesman said tickets in the lower bowl center court area were drawing prices anywhere from $3,800 to over $5,600 a seat.
No word on if the ticket prices include a soul kiss from Dustin Hoffman or Jason Bateman.
