Chicago Bears Facing Backlash for Offseason Move After Another Disappointing Year

"Today the #Bears are informing season-ticket holders that tickets for the 2025 season will increase by an average of 10%. A year ago, there was an average increase of 8% on season tickets," Brad Biggs wrote on X. 

One fan posted a screenshot of the email from Bears CEO Kevin Warren. 

"After careful thought and consideration -- incorporating market dynamics, industry trends, and a strong home schedule -- an average increase of 10 percent for our 2025 season ticket package will be instituted." 

As such, Bears fans are not thrilled with the decision, especially with the disappointment around the organization lately. 

"That's a robbery of Chicago fans they should show wins before raises tickets," one fan wrote. 

"Hilarious, for a last place division team with a bust QB but someone has to pay Ben’s salary and it’s the season ticket holders," said another. 

"After last season you’ve got to be kidding!" another stated. 

"At least give us a winning season before yall get to raising the price. @ChicagoBears," another wrote. 

"Bears have one of the worst season in recent years and they reward the fans with a 10% price increase," another said. 

"Maybe when the @ChicagoBears have idk A WINNING SEASON they can consider raising," another wrote with a screenshot of the Bears' recent results. 

The Bears hired Johnson and gave him a five-year deal worth $65 million, which is a lot of money for a first-time head coach. 

Moreover, the Bears have not had a winning season since 2018, and they have had just three winning seasons since 2010, so the patience is running out from the fans. 

Now, on top of the struggles, they are raising the season ticket prices once again.
