Why not the Top Cats? I always thought both teams' cheerleaders go to the Super Bowl...

Think you misread my post. The Top Cats are indeed going. Along with full-time staff and the field crew.

Eyes are bad, thought that period was a comma.

I think it was made pretty clear that part-time workers and non-employees (aka contract workers) aren't getting the free trip.  There's no way Richardson could pay for every person to go as that would be in the thousands.

The Top Cats are contract employees. There were some hurt feelings inside the entertainment department when it was announced the Top Cats were going, but Black and Blue Crew and Purrcussion were not.

The same thing happened in the last Super Bowl.  The Top Cats are just a special circumstance.

Would be cool if he bought out a bunch of suites for friends families and employees

He most certainly COULD pay for it but that doesn't mean he will or wants to. But by no means is it because Jerry doesn't have the money to pay for everyone to go.

Don't the TopCats actually have to work the game?

Know people inside the organization. The employees that Jerry isn't taking had the option to purchase (2) $1500 tickets. While nice, that's still very cost prohibitive for most people. I have proof, but I won't post it publicly. I would send it to Jeremy or a mod via PM, however. They could verify. 

I know this to be true.

Yes. And Purrcussion might be going if the NFL didn't already contract out the 49ers drum line. But they did, so Purrcussion has no role to play at the game. Doesn't negate the fact that if Jerry wanted to take them, he certainly could. Like I said, lots of hurt feelings there. Especially since the Panthers broke the news to the other entertainment staff that they weren't going to the game in the locker room right after the NFCCG.

They could turn around and sell the seats for double and clear an extra $3000.  That's a nice chunk of change if you can't go afford to go to the game.
