Default Anyone been to the superbowl?

It looks like it would be a cool few days, except if it was in Detroit or somewhere cold!!

Went to Super Bowl XXVII and could see Don Beebe catching Leon Lett from 20 yards back.

Very, very fun.

Just got back from XLIII and have been to XXX and XL also. It is a great time but in IMO it would really only fun if your team is in it. That being said Tampa was a great host and your right Brock Guy it was not nearly as much fun in a cold weather city, especially Detroit.

Sounds class 3 kings. One question I have about the superbowl that you or someone else should be able to answer for me - where do all the fans on the pitch for the half time show come from? Are they fans from the stands or can you just get a ticket for the half time show?

lol They are unpaid volunteers who do not have seats or tickets to the game. They come out at halftime and disappear immediately after half.
