After several trips to the Super Bowl, it looks like 12’s aren’t nearly as excited about a first round playoff appearance. But for those who are, they’ll have to pay for it.

The Seahawks play the Lions at 5:30 p.m. on Saturday for the first game of the playoffs.

In past seasons, Seahawks playoff tickets have sold out almost instantly and resale prices were the highest in the league. But despite going on sale Sunday evening, there were still dozens of scattered seats available around CenturyLink Field for Saturday night’s playoff game against the Detroit Lions as of Tuesday morning.
