Chicago Bears Announce Highest Ticket Increase in Years

What Happens If the Bears Win the Super Bowl?

It should come as no surprise because Bears tickets are always expensive, and when you win more games than you lose, you can start making fans who have sat through year after dreadful year pay a bit more.

Chicago Bears Announce 13.5% Season Ticket Increase for 2026

On the other hand, imagine if the Bears win the Super Bowl. Ticket prices in 2027 will be even higher.
