ATLANTA — Going to an Atlanta Falcons game is basically like saving money compared to seeing any other NFL team take the field.
A new study by Cardrates.com found that a “game-day experience” will cost a Falcons fan, on average, less than attending other games. They describe a “game-day experience” as a ticket, two beers, a hot dog and parking.

For all that, a fan will spend an average of $142.60, making it the 30th ranked team out of all 32 NFL teams. Only the Cincinnati Bengals and the Arizona Cardinals rank lower.
The Falcons don’t rank among the most affordable tickets, though. The average general admission ticket will cost you $111.54 to get into Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Atlanta’s “game-day experience” ranking is helped by having the cheapest concessions in the league. The study found that fans could get a beer for $5 and a hot dog for just $2.
