The Bengals ticket office on Thursday announced a new season ticket pricing model for 2012 for the general admission seats. No prices will be increased, and multiple sections of Paul Brown Stadium will see price reductions.
"We have a young team trending in the right direction," said Katie Blackburn, Bengals executive vice-president, "and we are pleased to share this new price structure with our fans in an attempt to make some seats more affordable. We have a great home schedule in 2012 and look forward to it being an exciting season that builds upon this year's success."
The Bengals host Baltimore this Sunday and can clinch a 2011 playoff berth with a victory. Cincinnati will have two first-round draft picks for 2012, and next season's home schedule will include dates against the Dallas Cowboys, New York Giants, Denver Broncos and Oakland Raiders, as well as the annual games against division rivals Baltimore, Cleveland and Pittsburgh.
Season tickets for 2012 will be available for as low as $40 per game. The $40 locations for 2012 are being decreased from a $60 price point in 2011, a 33 percent reduction.
More than 14,500 seats will have a reduced price in 2012, representing more than 27 percent of stadium seating.
Season tickets will be less expensive per game than single-game tickets, which will go on-sale at a later time.
