WHO can afford to go ????

[SanDiegoSteeler]

it doesn't feel like SuperBowl Sunday to me anymore. I think even if it was the Steelers.
too pussified,

I'm in the minority. Would rather watch from the comfort of my own home any day.

Attended only 5 games my entire life. The two most memorable:

The last one was the loss to the Pats in the miserable rain, when Jesse James didn't catch the ball that he caught. And that was only because my new son in law got the tickets.

The game prior to that was in Cleveland in the bitter cold. I mean it was ******* cold. And that was only because my son got tickets. My luck, a rare loss to the Clowns after beating them 11 straight.

The other 3 was when my kid was a kid. Only because taking him to games is was what dads are supposed to do.

He did catch the ball.

Definitely glad I was NOT (doubt I would ever go unless a hard to turn down free offer was made) at yesterday’s game. ****** ending with petty call.

But how else can the NFL script it, a heroic come from behind, misseed field goal, 2 pt conversion………. ****


Salute the nation

He did catch the ball.

I know he did! Like I said in all my sarcasm ...when Jesse James didn't catch the ball that he caught.

 

[Coach]

I was listening to CBS Saturday Morning and they said the average cost of the Super Bowl ticket went down from last year.

The AVERAGE cost of a ticket was $6,800.00 which they indicated was down from last year. I didn’t catch the last year average.

Who here would pay that to go this year? What if it were the STEELERS playing ?

They interviewed a Philly fan and he indicated he cashed in his 401K to afford the trip…….. NEVER a good idea.

Myself, I wouldn’t go for two reasons
1). The game of football is meaningless and I have very little investment into it (YES, love the STEELERS, but even they are becoming less than what they were and becoming more and more NFL-ey).
2). The money I have has been earned by HARD work / sweat / & tears, NOT a chance in. Hell I spend it on a meaningless product that I can watch 10 times better at home.


WHAT SAY YOU STEELERS NATION ?


Salute the nation

The sad result is the NFL has fightured out what people are willing to pay and can fill a stadium full of people at that amount. The business networking, parties, and stuff that goes on around the super bowl is significant. My father went years back and told me all about it. This to him was worth more than the game.

21,951,000 people in the U.S. have a net worth of $1 million or more. That puts the value of the game in perceptive. Its chump change to many of them, and they sure won't miss $ 6,800.00 a ticket.

Sporting events such as the Super bowl is beyond 98% of the fans. The price is only going up. Personally to me there come a point where things just don't make sense. Like a bottle of Louis the XIII. As long as I can see that game clearly to me that is what matters.

I hear all that you said here Coach. I highly doubt I'll ever attend a SB unless I come into Meg-A bucks or a near all-expense paid (by others).

The super bowl isn’t for the fans. It’s an event for fortune 500 ceo’s, celebrities etc to mingle. You have the try too hard commercials, movie previews and the best way to market all this is through the nfl. These companies know damn full well that people are going to watch.

There are fans in attendance but in small pockets.


I mean sheeesh. The coin toss was dramatic yesterday. It’s just one big over produced game.

But….as always. It sells

Don't worry I can remain negative for long periods of time. Well negative is too strong for it. I'd say being realistic backed by history of a good many seasons of not really competing for a championship or looking closer than the years before.
