We’ve heard various complaints from readers who attended the Super Bowl -- and whose tickets actually translated to seats in the stadium -- that the line to get in the building was way too long and moved way too slowly. It contributed to a surly mood among the masses.

“That was the angriest crowd I’ve ever been around,” Jean-Jacques Taylor of the Dallas Morning News said during a Tuesday appearance on ProFootballTalk Live.

Taylor believes that the NFL shouldn’t have taken over the stadium and nudged the Cowboys to side.

“What a novel concept,” Taylor said. “Listen to the people who do it all the time.”

The full segment with Taylor can be seen at the PFT Live home page.
