'Cause it's never too early for wishes

From one of the many sports travel vendors out there selling ticket packages for Super Bowl 50, here are some sample ticket prices:

 (sidebar: I hate that the NFL decided to use "50" instead of the traditional roman number "L"; George Carlin would agree, since "FOOTBALL IS PLAYED IN A STADIUM. WAR MEMORIAL STADIUM.  baseball is played in a park. a baseball park. weeeeee!")

3 nights hotel way way out of town (transportation to game included) + ticket and "pregame bash" (a $315 value): starts at $6695 per person

4 nights high-end hotel smack in the middle of SF's financial district (the good part of town), plus ticket and Steve Young hosted pre-game party (a $675 value by itself) will run you $7475 and up.

Tickets to pre-game party and game, no hotel needed? You're looking around $4300.

My plan to save some $$ if I were to head out that way, would be to hang out in town Thurs/Fri/Sat and then fly back on an early Sun flight to be home for the 6p kickoff and watch it on TV.  And I'd do the Taste of the NFL event on Sat night.  Been to a previous one on comp tickets, and it was FANTASTIC.   holy crap, though - tickets are $700 each???   May have to rethink the feasibility of my idea

Wow, never realized how expensive they were.  Unbelievably, my buddy from Charlotte is a finalist (one of four) for the Courtyard Marriott contest that would win him an all expenses trip for four (myself included) to the game.  Vote here for Greg Baskwell (you may recognize his dog videos) to send some Panthers fans to SF!

iAs a second generation hippie... Going to San Francisco and the area is one place I've always wanted to go. And now a possible SB appearance? I need a miracle and a hit. A lottery hit.

 

I've always wanted to check out the hate assberries district

    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
    • Woukd be a great addition You know the issues from my prespective, 2 things the Panthers must do 1. Edge or pass rushers or 2 oline or 3 oline or as Andy Reid says, when in doubt, draft a lineman it is time   That oline is troubling plus a small person at QB  they   1. Can do a lot better than mayes at center, 2. and lewis has had injuries all season. 3. Moton should not have  been resigned long term, 4. corbett is a shadow and will probably be released  5 and Christianson coming off Achilles   6 and the kicker, would be Ickey’s contract if they decide to keep him INMO rookie and contracts will be needed to offset all that
