Game 5 tickets available on resale market for nearly $10K

For a chance to witness Pittsburgh's first major North American championship won at home in over a half century, it'll certainly cost you.

Tickets for Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Final between the Pittsburgh Penguins and San Jose Sharks are hitting staggering units on the resale market.

As of just a few hours before puck drop, the cheapest seats are being valued at a minimum of $1,500, while tickets along the glass are available for just short of $10,000 a pop.

Meanwhile, an estimated 30,000 fans (who evidently don't have that sort of coin) flooding the streets outside Consol Energy Center and Market Square in anticipation of the franchise's fourth Stanley Cup.
