Sorry fans, it is what it is.  Super Bowl tickets will cost you.  That’s why most fans watch it from a remote location, but who knows maybe this will help us regular folk?!  A man is suing the NFL for not offering enough Super Bowl tickets to the public.  Report after the jump…

Meet Josh Finkelman of New Brunswick:

Josh Finkelman of New Brunswick has filed a class action lawsuit in federal court alleging the NFL and its member teams violated the New Jersey Consumer Fraud Act by splitting the estimated 80,000 tickets to Super Bowl XLVIII between the league, its 32 teams and the two host teams.

Only 1 percent of the tickets are made available to the general public through a national lottery, according to the claim. The league’s policy forces fans to the secondary market, where they pay substantially more than face value.

Apparently Finkelman paid $4,000 bucks for two tickets for the upcoming big game at the Meadowlands, motivating his lawsuit.
