The Philadelphia Eagles have officially secured their win at Super Bowl LIX, and some people forked out thousands of dollars to be in on the action.
Sure, you could have grabbed some wings, whipped up a dip, and sat down in front of the TV at home, but for some fans, that just wasn't quite good enough.
Ticket packages including a pre-game party, an open bar and a ticket to the game started at a staggering $6,700, but that's far from the most expensive experience that was available to in attendance at the Caesars Superdome, where the Kansas City Chiefs went up against the Philadelphia Eagles.
What tickets could you get for the Super Bowl?
The official On Location website had a range of experiences available, including separate Eagles and Chiefs Super Bowl packages, a chance to sit on the 50-yard line, and post-game field access.

Its cheapest package, titled 'Touchdown Club Premier', allowed fans to choose their exact seat in the stadium, attend a pregame party, dine with an open bar and chef-curated cuisine, enjoy appearances from 'NFL Legends', and listen to live music from Ludacris & The Revivalists.
On the flip side, the most expensive package cost $28,945 for a single occupancy room, or $18,445 per person for a double occupancy room.
What was included in the all-inclusive package?

Catchily named the 'Hotel Monteleone Official Ticket + All-Inclusive Weekend Experiences' package, this particular offering included not only a ticket for fans to attend the actual game, rather than watching the NFL at home, but also a three-night hotel stay, a party, food, and a whole host of other perks.
The football
Let's start with the most important part of the Super Bowl - the actual football. In the package, guests enjoyed:
- A ticket to the Super Bowl
- Elevated pregame and postgame experiences including parties on the Super Bowl campus, live entertainment, and appearances by NFL legends
- A photo op with the Vince Lombardi Trophy before it was handed to the winner of the Super Bowl
The food
All of those activities obviously required some fuelling, so the package of course included some tasty dishes up for grabs throughout the weekend.
- The On Location Lounge was open throughout the afternoon on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, and offered beer, wine, and light bites for guests
- A New Orleans Jazz Brunch on the Saturday morning featured New Orleans culinary and spirit tasting
- A chef-curated menu featuring New Orleans favorites and tailgate fare, as well as 'unlimited well brand spirits'
The hotel
The excitement of the big game might have stopped fans from getting much sleep, but at least they had a place to try and rest! The package included a stay at the Hotel Monteleone - 'one of the last great family owned and operated hotels in New Orleans'.
- Hotel stays ran from Friday-Monday
- The hotel is located less than a mile from the football stadium
- It features an on-site restaurant and bar, a fitness center, and a spa
The extras
As if all of that wasn't enough, there were a few extra things thrown in too.
- A dedicated concierge team to ensure fans had an exceptional Super Bowl LIX experience
- A bespoke gifting experience
Hopefully the perks will have softened the blow for any Chiefs fans!
