NFC East champion Redskins raise ticket prices

After winning NFC East, Redskins raise ticket prices for 1st time in 7 years

ASHBURN, Va. (AP) -- The Washington Redskins are raising general admission ticket prices for the first time in seven years.

The team announced Thursday that most of the seats will increase in price no more than 10 percent.

The announcement gave no specific details. It did say that the team's ticket prices "remain among the most affordable in the NFC East" — which consists of only four teams.

That's not all that's going up. The Redskins say it'll cost $40 to park at home games for the 2013 season.

The Redskins are coming off their first NFC East title since 1999, buoyed by the success of rookie quarterback Robert Griffin III.
