Bobby Gallo, the NFL’s SVP of Club Business Development, explained during the announcement that the football league had already seen interest in NFL-centric non-fungible tokens.

“We first began offering virtual commemorative ticket NFTs to fans during the regular season,” Gallo said in a statement. We witnessed great success with this one-of-a-kind fan experience, which provided the momentum to continue this program throughout the postseason and ultimately at Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles.” The NFL executive added: Collecting ticket stubs has always been something our fans love to do, especially for the season’s biggest game and offering customized Super Bowl NFTs allows us to enhance the gameday experience, while also enabling us to further evaluate the NFT space for future ticketing and event engagement opportunities.
