STH since 2002, opening of the new stadium. 0 for 4 in the Ticket Lottery. There are a lot of people in front of me that deserve tickets more. I feel bad for you guys, but I guess that's how the system is.

Official SB Ticket Lottery Policy
"SUPER BOWL
If the Patriots are participating in the game, each Season Ticket Holder is entered into a lottery which is conducted by Ernst & Young. The total number of entries an individual Season Ticket Holder receives is based on the number of years he has been a Season Ticket Holder TIMES the total number of tickets in his account. This policy will be at the Patriots' sole discretion."

ticketholder since 1971. No dice. Same as 03, 04, one other time. Since the NFL became big $, very few fans attend the SB. Lotsa "VIPs".

Yes. that is the idea. Plus kids are more easily forced into slavery (seen that on an episode of Law and Order SVU).

ETA: My kids may actually be such a headache, that they might consider paying me to take them back.

I don't think they sell standing room tix at SB, as nosebleed seats are usually the lowest priced "get in the door" option.

Ticket cost for me would be the major problem. If I had the money to get tickets I would actually drive the 16 hour trip. Leave Friday night. Leave Monday morning. Since I work for a major hotel chain getting a room would not be a problem. I just can't afford the game tickets.

Talk about win- win. Sell the kids, get paid to take them back, sell them again.

Gotta agree with the general thought here. Can't blame the hardcore fan for wanting to root their team on in Indy...But it's Indy. Part of what makes the superbowl such a great experience is the area it's in. I know it has no impact on the game, but having a **** load of fun in Miami for a week reallllllllly helps justify me spending the 5K+ the trip took. What will I do in Indy? sit in my hotel all day then go to a restraunt, and repeat until super bowl sunday? Yeah really sounds worth my 5k. I'm just saying...There's a lot more to it than the already stiff price of the game.

If the NFL doesn't want this to happen, keep it in the right areas. It doesn't always have to be in a warm climate, but give the people something to do.
