The NFL fumbled.

  Way to go GreenBay...CONGRAT'S.

I don't follow football like I used to and I admit that the only reason I watch the Super Bowl is because I want to see the funny commercials, and I guess a good game too. I like GreenBay, but I like the Steelers as well, but my number 1 team even if they lose alot is the Falcons...they will always be number 1 to me.

  After hearing about the 400 ticket holders that never got in to see the game, and seeing what the NFL was going to do for them, I had to sit back and wonder how much money these people lost. As near as I can figure, they paid $800.00 a ticket to get into the game since the NFL is giving them $2,400.00 back(3 times the ticket price). I would be blowing my top like you wouldn't believe if it were me and I only paid $50.00 I don't want to think about an $800.00 ticket.

  The NFL says that they are giving them tickets to next years Super Bowl...big deal. For most of the 400 people that lost out this it was probably their once in a life time shot at seeing their team in the Super Bowl AND/OR even be able to make it there. They may not be able to come up with the cash for next years trip and hotel,food and what have ya since they spent what they had on this years trip.

  All because they couldn't get the extra seats up and Inspected in time for the game, and they knew a week ahead of time that there wouldn't be enough seats but never said a word. If they had then maybe some of those people could have recouped some of their money some how. I think Mr.Jones should pay for those peoples transportation and rooms for next years game as well give them the tickets.

 As for me, I'll have the best seat around, right here at home, or in the seat of the truck listening to the game on the radio. It's cheaper that way and there are a lot less problems that way.
