3. That was the first thing I thought-- a lot of money

Was listening to NFL radio yesterday and they were talking to a player who lost in the SB about 10-15 years ago.

He said that once he was able to buy the game tickets, hotel rooms, and plane tickets for his relatives (about30 people ) -- his entire SB losers check was gone. He joked that once you added in the dinner he took everyone too, he lost money playing in the superbowl.

I would love to go to one -- once -- but I doubt that I will ever have enough disposable income to be able to blow that kind of money for one weekend.
