I could never cough up $950/ticket for ANYTHING!!!! Ticket prices are so out of this world these days.
Tell me about it! It was tough but I figured I might not get this chance again (face value) so I bit the bullet. Pretty crazy when you look at the past tickets and their pricing and how much they've gone up.

Wanna know something even worse? I could've sold them for $10K/each! ?‍♂ Because Seattle was in it so many from there came here trying to go to the game. The have a cult following worse than the Tacoma folks. I was ready to sell mine but Annie wouldn't let me and really wanted to go. Plus the person who got them for us gets me tickets to just about anything I want to see and had a very hard time getting these, especially for face value. As fun as it was I try not to think about that one.

Burrows will be a force for years to come and has taken Cincy a long way in the last 2 years. Mahomes stayed cool and calm and played well through his ankle injury. I still think Philly will be tough, they have a great defense. Mahomes will need these 2 weeks to heal and it should be a really good Super Bowl.
i route for any team that isn’t in New England ???

Yes! It figures the only Super Bowl I go to and I hated both teams! It is nice to NOT see them in every SB now and I like seeing the new up in coming stars battling it out.

I picked the Eagles. The Packers went out with a whimper (again) so I gotta keep pulling for the NFC team. Besides, their uniforms have some green in them and they make a decent cream cheese there. I'll have the Golf Channel queued up for the half time show, and of course the Pro Bowl or, "Punt, Pass, & Kick comes of age."
Lame.

I have no use for the NFL. I might paint a wall just to watch it dry instead.
I have a name for people that still watch the NFL but it would probably get me banned if posted.

I don't watch nearly as much as I use too, pretty much all college ball now. Heck I have season tickets to the Cardinals on the 40 yard line row 12 and haven't been in 3 years now. I have someone who buys the whole season from me so I still get the perks (advanced ticket sales for all events) and the business write off. :wink:

I don’t know, if you like football this was a great year in the NFL. There is so much parity in the league right now that it made for a lot of great games every weekend. The old “Any given Sunday….” phrase has never been more true. That being said, those games yesterday were mediocre. The quarterback going down in the first one ruined it and the refs couldn’t keep their flags in their pockets in the second one. I’ve never seen so many game altering calls in a big game like that.

Isn't the Pro Bowl a flag football game this year? :rolleyes: We were luckily to go to the last Super Bowl here in AZ back in 2015. We also went to the Pro Bowl just for the whole experience but as usual it was a lame game.

The Super Bowl was really a great experience and was one on my bucket list so I'm glad to have checked it off. Even getting the tickets for face value they were still $950.00/ each. We could've gone this year but decided to save the money towards our trip in June. There's a lot going on the whole week before so we went to every event and saw some really cool stuff. The NFL Experience which was held in the convention center has all the past Super Bowl rings on display along with all the tickets dating back to Super Bowl 1. The tickets were only $10.00. o_O

I think there is an "Action Packed" flag football game in there somewhere but the thing that's being hyped is an event where the pros go through these drills and a frickin' dodge ball game.
i went to my granddaughter's 4th grade school picnic and watched her compete in games and events similar to what they will have on this Pro Bowl mishanter.

The one day a year when the QVC channel is more entertaining.

Cheese steaks, maybe, but the Excel Energy Center has the best soft pretzels n' nacho cheese to munch, while the Wild beat the Flyers 3-2 in overtime; 3 fights, 2 five-4-fightings in the first 16 seconds- couldn't even get the puck dropped!

Don't forget.

Bum ankle, down 3 of his top targets, with a defense that was down 2 important leaders.

Kid is a machine first 5 full seasons and he's made it to 3 superbowls, would've been 4 if not for a stupid pre-snap defensive penalty. The whole team rallied around him and did what needed done.


I tell you these last few years have more than made up for my first 35 years as a Chiefs fan.
