Ticket prices are soaring like never before to see the Toronto Raptors.

With one person already reportedly paying over $76,000 CAD for a pair of courtside seats to the NBA Finals, basketball fans are willing to pay a king’s ransom for tickets.

Game 1 of the Raptors’ series against the Golden State Warriors — the first NBA Finals game ever to be played in Canada — is completely sold out, but there are lots of tickets available on the resale market.
