BOSTON – The NBA Finals are returning to Boston on Wednesday. Fans hoping to be in the building will have to pay a pretty penny.
Boston hosts the Golden State Warriors in Game 3 at TD Garden on Wednesday after the teams split the first two games of the series.
According to StubHub, tickets for Game 3 start at $800. That is the highest selling game in the series so far.
After that, things don't get any cheaper. StubHub said tickets to Game 4 will cost $1,080 just to get in the door.
Robert Tellia, Ace Ticket sales manager said the ticket broker's cheapest Game 3 seats are around $700, with others ranging from thousands of dollars up to $10,000 to sit near the benches.
"These are something we haven't seen before," Tellia said about ticket demand.
