I was one of these fans that got screwed over. Does anyone know how I can contact the NFL or Roger Goodell? I want to contact the press somehow so I do not get left in the dark.

I would definetly be talking with a LAWYER. Triple Refunds is fine for a start on Punitive damages. But I definetly think, Plane Fare & Hotels should be included. This was an EVENT that people wouldnt have come to DFW normally for without it being here. So ALL EXPENSES should be covered.

And YES I am sure some people will try to gouge it. But the 400 people who didnt get into seats should be able to submit all bills associated with this & get FULL REFUNDS of everything.

Also the NFL could COMP them seats Gratis to next years game as well.

Let me get this straight. The Cowgirls paid over 1 BILLION dollars on this stadium but they didn’t have seating for 400 people?

Triple damages is what the NFL owners need to get used to paying. When the union decertifies, the owners will be paying a lot of the triple damages thing.

BTW, if ‘dem ‘boys had been playing, the seat would have been safe enough for the ‘boys fans. After all, the Cowboy fans can’t get hurt if they fall on their heads.

Wow. What a big time screw up. They’ve had a long time to prepare for the Super Bowl so there’s no excuses. Jerry Jones has been a disaster: collapsed practice fields, ice falls, effing over hard-working fans, etc.

I mean really, they waited until game day for the fire marshalls to inspect the seating.

This Stadium is cursed, ice falling off the roof hurting people, people paying thousands and finding out an hour before kickoff they dont have a seat, and to top it off Christina doesnt know the words to the National Anthem….

This is crazy. The fans, who are the reason this game is even played for and sustained by, get screwed. I’m about ready to stop watching this sport.

Goodell knows what fans want. He was just protected these folks from themselves. They just don’t know it yet.

Lol, scalpers be buying up the tickets to get a triple refund.

Hefty refunds plus tickets to the next 5 Super Bowls, but nothing can take the place of wanting to go watch your team play and not be able to. Dang.

The NFL executives should give their seats, including their luxury box. It’s real fans that but these “cheap” seats….to leave these real fans outside looking in is just wrong.

The icing on the cake would be for the kickoff to hit the scoreboard.

Relax my man. I’m sure Ashton Kutchner will show up in the Party Plaza any minute and tell you you’ve been “punked”. The NFL wouldn’t do that to you. Would they?

Yet another reason I’m thankful for a large HDTV, a fridge full of beers, a comfortable couch and no line to the bathroom!

Jesus. After all these years, you would think that these moneygrubbing shysters would at least be good at these logistics. But no. They treat the fans just like they treat the players, as an irritating afterthought. Take your swill and like it prole, I have money, I command it.

How long before this fan is sued for ‘defaming’ Jonestown. They should just give him some Kool Aid. End it now.

“How ’bout dem Cowboys!!”

Can you blame them? I mean especially if your a fan of one of these two teams. This is going to make Jerry Jones and his new stadium look really bad.

Easy Solution: Take all the people affected by these temporary seats and throw them into Jerry’s suit and let Jerry sit in the temp seats.

It’s okay, I’m sure Goodell will make good to all the fans in question.

I smell a class action suit. It’s ridiculous that these people have traveled God knows how far, and spent a ton of money to be turned away.

I’d be pissed, too.
