NFC Championship Game expected to bring economic boost to Santa Clara

SANTA CLARA, Calif. (KRON) – This weekend’s NFC Championship Game between the Detroit Lions and San Francisco 49ers at Levi’s Stadium is trending to be the most expensive conference championship ticket in over a decade,

It is also expected to bring thousands of people to Santa Clara and boost the local economy.

“One of the hotel owners was talking about the game and said the time we’re always booked up is when the Niners are in the playoffs or having big games,” said Ravinder Lal with the Silicon Valley Central Chamber of Commerce.

Lal says the South Bay will feel the economic boost way ahead of gameday.

“People eat out, people are going out on the town, and enjoying themselves the night before the game, so bars and restaurants of all the local cities all have a big effect,” he said. 

According to StubHub, roughly 10% of tickets for Sunday’s game have already been sold to people from Michigan.
