Resale market for Super Bowl tickets slips after Cowboys ousted

The Super Bowl ticket resale market slumped minutes after the Dallas Cowboys lost to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night.

Really? Kind of presumptuous, to ever think the Cowboys had a lock on a Super Bowl appearance - the Packers, the Falcons are both great teams and would have been tough for Dallas to get through but guess there really is big money in Texas.

Ain't a big part of that just that the SB is in Texas and therefore there would be greater demand because it's a shorter trip for more Dallas fans?

Well, the resale prices are dropping, so the demand for tickets is decreasing, which tells me that the ticket holders aren't parting with them - in other words, they are going to attend the Super Bowl no matter who is playing.
