I would definitely say B (for) and C (to), but I would never say A (of) in this particular construction.
--> I have a ticket for a football game (OK).
--> I have a ticket to a football game (OK).
--> I have a ticket of a football game (sounds odd).

B or C will work nicely. I have a ticket for (attending) a game. I have a ticket to (attend) a game.

Thank you for your reply ! But I have seen a sentence " He swapped his radio for a ticket of a football match" Is it a wrong sentence? And does " a ticket for " always equal to "a ticket to " ? Do they have differences ?

通常来说是用for 但也有of 和to 的用法。我只想知道英语母语的人通常怎么说
