Have him call me, I'll convince him.

[Denny]

I'm thinking if a few people I know who are financially stable enough to be able to do it and go through with it... throw money into an account for the sole purpose of buying a suite for the Super Bowl. I'm going to try and figure out how much is needed to be put in and by when. All I have to go off of is suite costs from previous Super Bowls at the moment.

Shame on you for even asking!!! :mad:

[Denny]

I heard on Norm's show something about a 20 person suite. Going by that and being 45 months away, 10 people putting in $100 a month into the account (paying their way and one guest). We're talking $45,000 saved up for that room. I wonder if that'll get us by?

[slow06]

I will buy tickets...i'm saving up starting now.

[Yellowstang]

Fuck, I hope my office moves before then, traffic those 2 weeks will suck!

[redheadintx]

Found this in an article about the Super Bowl in Miami...

"An e-mail from StubHub.com Wednesday night says that a 50-person sideline suite is still available for $464,000. The most expensive single ticket sold was for just over $10,000."

:eek:

sonofabeech! well, i guess i'm watchin on TV LOL.

Most tickets started at $1000 though... that's just worst case scenario.

[SouthernSVT]

I'm sooooooooo there. I'm in for the suite if i'm approved, if not, i'll be the guy givin ya'll the bird from the stands. Either way i'm going.

[Big Studly]

They will be this much, if not more by 2011.....that being said, u think $2250 a ticket for a suite is on par? Denny, I think your plan is going to take more money.

[Geor!]

I'm hoping for a Steelers/Cowboys Super Bowl that year for sure!

[redheadintx]

Well, if a regular ticket is going to be at least $1000 each then $2250 is probably not enough for a suite ticket... but I have no idea. :o

[Yellowstang]

Whn I looked at some SB tickets 2 years ago (Detroit), the cheapest I found was about $2200 each, in the upper nose bleed sections. It's not like the general public can just go buy tickets, you have to have an in somewhere, or know someone, or check stubhub, etc.

[Yellowstang]

Crap, check these prices for the next SB

Money isn't going to be your problem... getting on the list will be.

[Strychnine]

Shiiiiiiit.

Next week am moving just 2 miles from the new stadium, and I work right down the street at 360 & Randol Mill.

Assuming I'm still here, I think I will save up some vacation time and get the hell out of dodge for a while when the time comes.

I dunno, It prolly wont...

Suites firstly, during the superbowl are mainly issued to buisness.

Quoted from last years superbowl:

"TicketsNow.com, which connects ticket buyers and sellers, advertised Monday a 40-person luxury suite on the 40-yard-line for — are you sitting? — $261,000. Another Web site priced a box at $315,000.

"Most of those belong to corporations, and they're now finding their way onto the secondary market," said TicketsNow spokeswoman Jennifer Swanson. "The folks that buy those either have celebrity status or they are another corporation trying to highly impress some very influential clients."

Now there will be an undecided amount of suites @ cowboys stadium. 150-200 says Jerry Jones on dallascowboys.com

Chances are, even if you do happen to save money for one, you either
A.) will not have enough money.
B.) You won't get one anyway.


I would shoot for tickets to be more realistic. Before you notice that you wont be getting suites and that way you wont be late by the time you know you wont get one.

This is a great day in the Chicken Fried Nation, but a sad day for the City of Dallas. "Madam No" aka Laura Miller fucked up by not letting Jerry build the 'Boss Hogg Bowl' in Dallas and instead letting Arlington step up to the plate and go through with it.

Yes, Dallas will see some revenue from the Super-Bowl being here with hotel rooms and Pre-Super-Bowl events, but nowhere near what it could have been had the stadium been in Dallas. Just look at the math here:

100,000 people x $900 average ticket price for the Super Bowl = $90,000,000.00

That does not include estimates of around 20,000 people outside the stadium paying to watch on the screens, food/beverage sales, merchandise, parking, etc. Think about all the tax money that the City of Dallas is now missing out on because Laura Miller is a stupid bitch. Had Ron Kirk still been in office, this would have been a slam dunk. Hell, Laura Miller didn't even want the AAC built when it was proposed. If it were up to her, we'd all still be going to that dump of an arena across the street and the area the AAC is on now would still be some burned out plant that was an eye-sore.

[KOZMO]

It doesn't matter. DFW will merge and all become one someday! :D :p

[Denny]

Well shit! At those prices, you'd have to get at least 20 people putting in $400 each month for the next 45 months just to get $360,000. I MIGHT be able to afford it and an even bigger MIGHT for finding 19 other willing people to do the same, but it's just not worth that. I'll just do the $100 aside until ticket time. If I can't swing a couple tickets by then, then I'll just throw a big-ass SuperBowl party.

Jerry never really had any real intensions of bringing the stadium to Dallas. He just used Dallas to keep Arlington competitive.

[redheadintx]

...it's just not worth that...

I agree!!! If I could get a ticket for around $1000 I would go, but much more than that seems ridiculous to me.

I wouldn't go to that crap if it was free.....to many protentious fuck heads/ wanna be celebrities/ people that think they are way more important that they are. Fuck, I can't stand going to the bars around here, I sure as hell am not going to cram myself into a place with over 100,000 other people that I hate, and I surely would not pay $1000 to do it!

Sorry, just visualized forking over $1K and what it would be like to actually go and kind of made me sick to my stomach.

Yeah... it was the $100 per month for FOUR years that got to me... I mean, I have blown $1000 on stupid shit before... I'd like to go just once if it wouldn't cost more than that. But over $1000? I just can't bring myself to do it.

you are braver than I am....no doubt it would be cool....but I have been to a World Series game (Famous game 6 of the '91 series in Minnesota)...so I have my once in a lifetime sports fix.

[BOOSTED32V]

Yeah it was a big ploy to have it in Arlington from the begining, Dallas and Ft. Worth will still get millions of dollars from all of the people that will come, where do you think they will stay Arlington, Grand Prairie, Hurst, LMFAO!
ALL of the hotels in Ft. Worth and Dallas will be full and so will all the restaurants, tit bars, etc. in all of the suburbs too! I really dont think there is enough room, so I'll be leasing my house to some crew from NBC or one of the other networks for $3500.00 a week, oh wait this is in 2011, $5500.00 a week paid in advance, reservations now being accepted :cool: ...'H'

[Vertnut]

Hell, in 4 years Arlington could build 10 hotels with 1000 rooms each, and I wouldn't put it past them. I'll bet they will try to keep all those folks (and their money) right there in Arlington...and why not? :confused:

[SVTVenom]

He may have used the City of Dallas as leverage, but I don't think his intensions were hollow.

Now not only did he get the 2011 Super-Bowl, but the Big XII Championship game will also be coming to the 'Boss Hogg Bowl'
