Thompson and his team dissected some of today’s most popular websites, such as Kayak and Expedia for formulate cost.
“When we were looking for room, there wasn’t much out there for less than $1000 a night. And most every room was gone,” he said.

Below is the cost breakdown:
Cheap seats are averaging more than $7,000; one round trip flight is approximately $1,000; parking/Uber/taxi roughly $100, and food is averaged out to $35 person.
“How much gouging goes on for the superbowl weekend. Compared to every other weekend. And hotels can make, pretty much as much as they want to out there,” said Thompson.
If you are a Chiefs fans and want to attend the tilt, well, you are going to have to dig a bit deeper.
Added Thompson: “Airfare, is considerably much more expensive out of Kansas City than out of Philadelphia.”
