How much are tickets going for? Well a crappy seat in an end zone corner has a face value of $900…But on an eBay auction two tickets in this section (234) are currently offered at $3700 with 1.5 hours to go…Scalpers are trying for $5000 for similar seats… That’s a lot of money for the privilege of…

I was in Lucas Oil Stadium for a college football game. It cost me nothing because I am an emeritus from one of the colleges whose team played there. I think the stadium is for wimps–it has comfortable chair seats. I grew up sitting on bleachers to watch football and basketball games and I still …

I’ll be taking a swing dance class with my wife while the game is on [cue sound of whip cracking].

Wow, $900 for a crappy seat at the Super Bowl, or $5,000 for a scalped crappy seat at the Super Bowl. Either seems kind of steep to me. Makes my sister’s enthusiasm for professional wrestling seem cheap by comparison. A few years ago, she bought a “travel package” for WWE WrestleMania weekend (Wr…

This is the premier event of the NFL season. It should cost a lot. I saw Bob Costas interview Roger Goodell last night, and they discussed this question. Goodell said that tickets were set aside for regular forks at $500 each. He also said that many of the tickets scalped for the game were from …

I remember living in Denver when the Broncos were fighting for their first ever play-off birth…The last game of the season, playing the Oakland Raiders for the AFC-W title…Kenny Stabler the Oakland quarterback, the Broncos fate resting on the “Orange Crush” defense…The heavily hyped game was sold ou…

I recently found myself watching some television show about weddings and wedding parties and wedding dresses and thought that was the most outrageous example of self indulgence but apparently men and sporting events might surpass the women’s weddings. There are a great many more wealthy people than …

“Surely no one would spend more than one days income to see a ball game, would they?” Apparently some folks would. A lot of the sales are a business expense, but there are regular guys that spring for the PSL and 20 tickets.

It’s also an international event - I imagine some of those seats went to folks from elsewhere, lots of money to throw around.

How 'bout those car commercials? The Silverado ad is hilarious. I just love the raining frogs at the end. The Sonic ad is also a lot of fun. It’s enough to make you buy the products! Apocalypse Howl! No, it’s not. No knock on the product, but I never bought Budweiser, despite their decades of…

The only issue I had with the Silverado commercial is that I don’t think GM thought that one through very well. Ford did send GM and NBC a “cease and desist” order in an attempt to keep the ad from airing during the Super Bowl, which did not change anything except give GM more press for that move. …

Most fun we’ve had - going to college BB games. Least fun? Going to one (and only one) NFL game.
