The NFL season officially kicks off this Sun., Sept. 11 with the Indianapolis Colts taking on the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium.

We know you Hoosiers love your football — so from the first home games to season predictions, we're getting you hyped up to cheer on the Colts.

Plan your visit to Lucas Oil Stadium

The grand total for a family of four to enjoy a Colts game this year — four tickets, parking, two beers, two sodas and four hot dogs — is on average $301. To put that into perspective, for 49ers fans that number is a whopping $1,028.34.

That's according to an analysis by Bookies.com, which pulled together prices from NFL stadiums across the country and found that watching the Colts is among the cheapest games to attend. I think if you linked the Bookies webpage where it breaks this down, you could delete this whole graf.
