Pro Football Hall of Fame 2016 game class action settlement

The Pro Football Hall of Fame agreed to a class action lawsuit settlement to resolve claims it breached its ticket contract by canceling the 2016 Hall of Fame game.

The settlement benefits consumers who paid for or acquired tickets to the 2016 NFL Pro Football Hall of Fame game and have not accepted reimbursement for the Pro Football Hall of Fame by submitting a reimbursement election form. 

According to the plaintiff in the case, the hall of fame canceled the 2016 game scheduled between the Green Bay Packers and Indianapolis Colts due to field conditions. The plaintiff and other ticket holders were allegedly injured by breach of contract due to this cancellation. 

The Pro Football Hall of Fame is in Canton, Ohio. It celebrates the best players and victories of professional football. 

The defendant hasn’t admitted any wrongdoing but agreed to pay an undisclosed sum as part of a settlement to resolve the class action lawsuit.

Under the terms of the settlement, class members can receive reimbursement for documented expenses including up to $250 per ticket, up to $600 for travel expenses, hotel costs of up to $289 per night, ground transportation of up to $100, mileage reimbursement of $0.54 per mile and parking fees of up to $50 per vehicle.

Even without documentation, class members can receive reimbursement for the face value price of their ticket. Class members without documentation can also receive a fixed cash payment of $300 for miscellaneous expenses. 

The deadline for exclusion and objection is Oct. 9, 2023.

The final approval hearing for the 2016 hall of fame game class action lawsuit settlement is scheduled for Nov. 17, 2023.

In order to receive a settlement payment, class members must submit a valid claim form by Oct. 9, 2023.
