San Francisco 49ers NFL tickets are a steal...for now

A snapshot of National Football League average home game ticket prices for the 2013-2014 season, according to ticket marketplace Vivid Seats.

The looming National Football League season will be the San Francisco 49ers' last at Candlestick Park, and cost-conscious fans might want to get in on the action now.

According to an analysis by online ticket marketplace Vivid Seats, the Niners have the No. 13 most expensive average home game tickets out of the league's 32 teams. But if the team's season ticket and seat license prices at the new Levi's Stadium are any indication, expect the team to rank higher next year.

Across the NFL, the average ticket price for the 2013 season is $203.75. For home games at Candlestick Park this upcoming season, 49ers' tickets are going for an average $216, according to Vivid Seats.

That's much lower than the top teams for home game ticket sales, like the New England Patriots, which are going for an average of $431. However, Niners games are significantly higher than the Oakland Raiders' average $120 ticket price, which sends the East Bay team to the bottom of the spendy list, at No. 29.

The 49ers' new $1.3 billion Santa Clara stadium project ? slated for completion next summer ? has already generated more than $800 million in revenue from early seat license and box sales.

Seat license costs at Levi's Stadium, which are not figured into average ticket prices, range from $2,000 to $12,000. Season ticket prices range from $850 to $2,000 or more for suites.

For those keeping score, a ticket to the 49ers' game at the Seattle Seahawks on Sept. 15 is currently the No. 11 most expensive single game of the upcoming season, with tickets averaging $418, according to Vivid Seats.
