Fans React To YouTube’s Pricing For NFL Sunday Ticket

For many years, DirecTV was the only source for NFL Sunday Ticket, and for RedZone as well.

Recently, YouTube has reached an agreement with the NFL, and will now be the provider of these viewing services.

When this announcement was made, many fans were initially excited, as they would have a more accessible way to watch games.

In another announcement, YouTube has released what this service will cost, which has received mixed reviews.

YouTube has announced its pricing for NFL Sunday Ticket:

YouTube TV subscribers:
• $349/season ($249 if you purchase before June 6)
• $389 ($289 early) if you bundle with RedZone

Non-YouTube TV subscribers:
• $449/season ($349 early)
• $489 ($389 early) with RedZone pic.twitter.com/TtLbNgGldi

As Ari Meirov highlights above, Sunday Ticket will cost $349 for current YouTube TV subscribers, but that cost jumps to $449 if a person is not subscribed to YouTube TV.

Many fans were astonished by this price and reacted accordingly.

As this fan highlighted via a Kermit the Frog meme, this price seems astronomical to them.

To compare this to DirecTV’s services, Sunday Ticket previously cost $293 for the full season, but it wasn’t readily available to non-subscribers.

While the cost is relatively similar between the two sources, many fans are upset, and exclaim that they will not partake in this year’s offering.

While this price is expensive for many fans, it appears that the most die-hard NFL fans will be purchasing a subscription, no matter what the cost may be.
