Seeing Green: Stubhub To Plant Tree For Every NFL Playoff Ticket Sold

By Ryan Corazza

I’ve never bought a ticket off of Stubhub, but I know people that have. And, it’s never really much of a pleasurable experience: They’re a ticket brocker, they jack up prices, people pay anyway and then they complain about it. But if you’re looking for a ticket to a game or a concert, they likely have it. Powerful, Stubhub is.

But, Stubhub isn’t all about profits. No friends, they’re giving to Mother Earth this holiday season. For every ticket sold on their site to an NFL playoff game, they’re planting a tree in a nearby forest.

Playoffs: One tree will be planted in a National Forest for each playoff ticket purchased on StubHub. The number of trees to be planted in each forest depends on the number of tickets that are purchased on StubHub for each team’s home game(s). All tickets purchased will be attributed to the home team’s designated National Forest.

Super Bowl XLIII: One tree will be planted in Florida’s Ocala National Forest for every Super Bowl XLIII ticket purchased on StubHub.

Fans have two ways to participate in StubHub’s Tickets for Trees program:

1. Buy an NFL playoff ticket or Super Bowl XLIII ticket on StubHub
2. Donate directly to your team’s National Forest–every dollar plants another tree

Look like Minnesota’s Superior National Forest isn’t going to get much of a makeover.
