The NFL announced Wednesday that 5,000 people will be allowed into Lucas Oil Stadium on Jan. 31, when reporters interview players from the two teams. They will join roughly 3,000 accredited media members in an event that usually has comedy mixed in with traditional interviews.
Frank Supovitz, the NFL's senior vice president of events, says the league has considered allowing fans into the event for the past few years. This year's game is Feb. 5.
Tickets will be available in early December. Prices have not been announced yet, but Supovitz says they will be "affordable."
Fans will receive a gift bag, including a radio that will allow them to tune into NFL Network and hear individual interviews from the podium microphones.
