Eagles-Redskins, With McNabb, Is Hottest Ticket In Town

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - The return of Donovan McNabb has Eagles fans pumped, and opening their wallets to get tickets to the big game.

Sunday's game at Lincoln Financial Field -- between the Eagles and the Redskins, with former Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb now wearing the burgundy and gold -- has football fans going crazy about the faceoff between McNabb and the Birds' newest starting quarterback, Michael Vick.

Stubhub.com spokeswoman Joellen Ferrer says her web site is selling tickets at a frenzied pace:

"The anticipation has been brewing ever since McNabb changed colors, and so this is certainly the top selling game of the week on Stubhub, based on gross sales. And in fact, it cracked the top ten of the season, alongside some of the home openers and the anticipation of some of the other top games of the season."

She says the average ticket price is about $225, with six times more sales in Philadelphia than in Washington.
