Hey everyone! Been awhile since I stopped in here. Last year I was active in these forums for awhile. I took my girlfriend to a Patriots game last December for her birthday and got some GREAT information here and also met some really cool people! I'm sure it was a little difficult to be nice to someone like myself (explained later....keep reading ), but I truly appreciated all the kind guidance and tips I got from you all here at patsfans.com!

So.....I'm back. I'm thinking of taking my girlfriend to another game this year. She is a HUGE Pats fan and we definitely enjoyed the game last year in Foxboro. I, on the other hand, am a die-hard Steelers fan with Black and Gold running through my veins, so I would LOVE to get my hands on some tickets to the Pats/Steelers brawl in December!

Unfortunately, tickets seem pretty pricey for this game and not sure what kinda budget I'll have to play with. I realize this is probably a LONG SHOT, but if anyone out there is a season ticket holder or knows season ticket holders and won't be able to make it to this game, PLEASE let me know. I'd be happy to pay above face value for the tickets, but these ticket brokers' prices are insane! Any help or ideas on where to get tickets at a reasonable price would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks so much for your time, and congratulations on an outstanding season so far! Your Pats really are looking dominant, and I wish them luck (except when they play my Steelers! ). Thanks again!

If you do make it to the game, show proper etiquette and leave your Terrible Towel at home.

Actually, you raise a valid concern. Just for the record, I don't hate the Pats, I just happen to be born and raised in the Pittsburgh area, and will always love my Steelers first and foremost. Nothing wrong with a little hometown pride! However, my girlfriend harrassed me for weeks, trying to get my to wear some Pats gear (jersey, hat, etc.) to the game in Foxboro last year. I, of course declined, and chose to wear "neutral" colors. I actually DID root for the Pats that day, out of respect for the team, their fans, and most importantly my girlfriend. It was her birthday gift afterall, and really the day was all about her. I can't promise that I won't be rooting for the Steelers if I go to the game, but I can assure you that I will be respectful of the Pats and their fans, as I have always been. Thanks for the reply though!

Let him bring the terrible snot rag to the game. He'll need it to dry his eyes
by the end of the first quarter.

I'd probably need it to clean up the beer/soda/food thrown at me in the stands.


Hmm....a few Steeler haters stalking around in here, huh? That's ok. I can take it. We'll see what's up on December 9th!

Yeah, we oughtta be okay with just the super bowls, plural -- past and future. Why torture the one-bowl wonders any more?

I went to the game with a Browns fan yesterday (nicest guy you will ever meet), and man, he got the business from the fans. We almost got into it with some morons a couple of times.

If people were this rough on lowly Browns fans, I cant imagine wht it is going to be like for guys walking around in Jets or Steeler jerseys.

Ummm....huh? One Bowl Wonders?! You're kiddin, right? Tell ya what.....talk to me when the Pats have their "One for the thumb".

PatsFanInVa

Yeah, one bowl wonders. There's one person on earth that cares how much Terry Bradshaw scores these days, and it's his wife, unless there really is something going on with Jillian Barbieri.

Or do you actually think Hines Ward was playing in the 70s?

One-bowl wonders. Cope.

If this post made any sense I'd probably be able to respond appropriately, but since it doesn't.......

So, what you're saying is that you only count Superbowl wins from 2002-2005since those are the only ones the Pats won? What about I through XXXV? I think you might have missed a few years. Maybe you were in a coma?
