		<description><![CDATA[It amazes me that people think that the SB attendees who got screwed should just take what was offered to them and be happy with it. I guess most of you feel its ok to pay for something and when you don&#039;t get what you pay for, not care.

We all know very few people pay face value for a SB ticket, why shouldn&#039;t those that got screwed get back what they paid?

I guarantee if you were in their shoes, you&#039;d feel the same way, screwed.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[With the squabbles over the CBA getting uglier by the day, this monumental screwup, and Jerry Jones being the most visible of the owners today, this is EXACTLY what the owners don&#039;t want, at EXACTLY the wrong time. 

Excellent

As for people dragging this out to get more money, ordinarily I would agree, but there is NO excuse for this and the NFL in general and Jerry Jones in particular are obviously stonewalling in hopes that this will go away.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is one the milder stories out there, but others are much worse. I don&#039;t see how anyone can blame these fans for being upset and not being content with a future Super Bowl ticket. The NFL spends millions and millions aggressively marketing to this exact audience to become this invested as a fan. Buy tickets, buy merchandise, buy the Sunday Ticket, spend $25 to spend hours in line at NFL Experience for a backup kicker&#039;s autograph. Sure fans, we know times are tough but make sacrifices to come support your team. And fans do. And the only reason they spend thousands on the market value of a Super Bowl ticket to see their team, not just any team and not just to go to a Super Bowl, is because they ARE as invested as the NFL spends millions wanting them to be and because they trust that the NFL will give them a quality experience. You can&#039;t then turn around and say oh well, you shouldn&#039;t be taking chances on a trip you really couldn&#039;t afford. The saddest part of seeing all the videos and reading the articles of the real horror stories (not as much this one) is seeing all these true fans in their cheeseheads and decked out in fan gear. I think they felt as bad, as hurt, and as betrayed as if they had gotten so dressed up and were sooo excited for the prom and their date never showed, and it&#039;s as damaging to the relationship. Future Super Bowls may work for corporate sponsors, but not for people who cared deeply, passionately and were left in a state of shock and disbelief that they could be tossed aside so casually.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Jeez, a few days ago when I was telling these people to STFU, take the deal, and move on with their lives I was getting screamed at by the PFT crowd. Now it seems more people are coming around to the fact that these people are extremely greedy people who not trying to just get properly reimbursed for this, but instead they are trying to get RICH off this.

Like someone else correctly said, if these people think this experience was a &quot;nightmare&quot; then they have had a pretty awesome life.  The more these greedy people drag this out, the more I hope the NFL destroys them in this lawsuit.  I hope they end up getting a $900 refund... face value of the tickets they lost out on. No more than that. No 3X the value. No future SB tix.  You get greedy, you get burned.]]></description>

Hey Sparky you and your comments are pathetic!

Once again you&#039;ve shown that your comments belong on a message board for Cowboy haters instead of this one which is for football fans.

You have to understand why the Packer fans were so confused.
For many of them this was their first experience with paved roads, electric lights and toilet seats that did not give you splinters.

Wow you are a funny dude. Douche bag.What hell hole city do you live in? Drug dealers, crack whores,high murder rates,streets you can&#039;t walk down at nights. By the way when the Green Bay Packers won the Super Bowl there were no riots turned over cars no beatings 3 people were arrested for drunk and disorderly.
Funny how these &quot;hick&quot; Packer Fans could afford to go to the Super Bowl.
Your jealousy is pathetic towards the people that could go  (got screwed) and a city whose team owned by their fans are the WORLD CHAMPS.
I&#039;m sure your pissed now go back to your box pray that your next john doesn&#039;t beat you actually pays you for your &quot;services&quot;. Instead of just giving you something warm for your tummy.
Then you&#039;ll have some money to buy some crack, meth,or whatever else you snort,smoke, drink,or inject in the big vein behind your kneecap. So you can escape from the miserable experience you call life and get over whatever team you root for not BEING THE WORLD CHAMPS
I bet the cost of your habit just went up ahole]]></description>

My owner? Your an ass!! He happens to be the owner of a team I am a fan of. Team meaning the players! I also am a fan of the Packers. I enjoyed their win immensely. What I don&#039;t do is eat, s***, and breathe the NFL like some of the people on this board! Sports is a distraction for me, not my life!

		<description><![CDATA[I think the NFL has made a fair offer to these people.

That said, the buch stops at Jerry Jones and he should accept that fact that he should NEVER been given a chance to host a superbowl EVER again.

Been watching the game since 84 and never have I seen so many STUPID things happen prior or during the biggest game of the year.

If Jerry was any type of man, and MANS man, not a business man. He would not even try to get the Superbowl back because he completely failed when given his shot.

Too stupid to realize snow might kill people when falling from his billion dollar blunder, too stupid to realize that not having the seating in time would become a national story.

Superbowl is too big a game to be given 2nd chances. He had his shot, he failed. 
 
IF they give Dallas another shot, let Jimmy Johnson oversee everything and push Jerry Jones into the shadows and Im sure it will go well... cause we all have seen what happens when Jerry Jones gets involved.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Thank you for giving Mr. D&#039;Amico his 15 minutes of fame.

What I find funny is that as much as he tries to drama it up to make it sound as truly terrible as possible so he will get an adequate amount of pity, the best he can come up with is that &quot;he missed the pageantry that is supposed to be part of the Super Bowl experience&quot;,  and that the people from the stadium trying to help them weren&#039;t talking loudly enough.

I&#039;ll need to hear from alot more people than just Mr. D&#039;Amico before I&#039;ll believe there was a &quot;riot type atmosphere&quot;.

Missing the pregame &quot;pageantry&quot;, having to strain to hear someone talk, and having upper level seats in exchange for either my money back or free tickets to a future Super Bowl?

		<description><![CDATA[So let me get this straight: in the grand scheme of things, this D&#039;Amico guy missed nothing but the &quot;pageantry&quot; of the Super Bowl, he still got a seat, he still got to watch the game, he got to see his team WIN the game, he&#039;s being offered a FREE ticket to a future Super Bowl, and yet he&#039;s still complaining. 

For the record, I think the NFL is in the wrong. They should not have sold tickets to seats that didn&#039;t exist and the fans did not deserve this type of porous mismanagement at the biggest game of the year. But now, as is the case with most of society, ANY fan who was even slightly inconvenienced by the mess is being fickle and is attempting to profit from the situation. Worse, the NFL is buying into it. 

The 400 fans who didn&#039;t actually get seats deserve anything that&#039;s coming to them. In their situation, the NFL should pay for their airfare and hotel from THIS YEAR, give them a full refund of the purchase price of the ticket (not &quot;triple the face value&quot; nonsense, a full refund of what they paid), and then give them a free all-expense paid trip to a Super Bowl of their choice. They paid for seats and they didn&#039;t get them, which is a horrific error on the NFL&#039;s part. 

However, I find it absurd that the 850 fans who still GOT seats are complaining that they want compensation for the fact that they had to wait in line and ended up missing Christina Aguilera botch the National Anthem. Big deal. You&#039;re still getting offered a free Super Bowl ticket; take it and move on with your life.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The NFL is blowing a convenient opportunity to look like the good guys before they lock the players out in a few weeks. Had they quickly over-compensated the measly 800+ fans who got shafted and showed interviews with them smiling and claiming satisfaction the league might&#039;ve earned itself a little  public confidence. As it stands now they come off like cheapskates before demanding the players take less money in the CBA talks.

The owners are being cheap with both the fans AND players, how are they supposed to win the public&#039;s support/confidence like this? I&#039;m really starting to doubt we get pro football next season and I&#039;m going to blame the owners 100%...]]></description>

I would like for just one person to step up and say that yes they were disappointed and that the offer the NFL was reasonable.   Lets put this in perspective, they missed seeing a football game. No one got hurt, no one will be permently disabled. 
To all the folks who were involved in this, shut double f up and go away. You are more annoying than Brett Farve.]]></description>
