To stand up in the heat or stand up in the cold: that is the question.
In the (theoretically) last bit of football-related news for the next 6 and a half months, 400 fans that bought a seat for the Super Bowl at the game were made seat-less (which is like being homeless, but with 53% less bindles in play) due to a SNAFU called the weather for the past week.
The solution to this problem was declared:
League spokesman Brian McCarthy issued a statement shortly after kickoff saying the fans have been allowed into the field-level club behind the Pittsburgh Steelers bench, where they could watch the game on monitors. Or, they can view the game in person on standing-room platforms in each corner of Cowboys Stadium.
Yeah, we’ll go with the other option:
The fans will also get a refund equal to triple the face value of the $800 tickets.
Yes, that’ll do.
