Not people who hang around internet chat rooms but the rest of the civilized world will be watching.

A chess match is more exciting than watching 'phony american football'. That's all I gotta say.

I think since HDTV the days of paying huge dollars for sporting events are long gone. The value of going to the Super Bowl has been really going down. If you look online to buy tickets the price keeps going down every day

Even at a few hundred dollars I would have zero interest. I'd pay maybe $100, there's just way too much hassle and that stadium really sucks. Not to mention the cold & even rain

NO, I absolutely do not care, nor have any interest in it, nor no anything about it.


I have more interest in the lint that I found in my belly button today.

If they distribute free wings and tap beer, and deploy scantily clad cheerleaders and WAGs, then a LOT of (male) New Yorkers will definitely care.

Football is basically the national sport and this is its championship. So lots of New Yorkers care, even when no New York teams are in it. You just don't know them.

Met Life is the most expensive stadium ever built and it's not even domed. And the first time in history when a non domed stadium in a cold weather city will host. And the first time in history when a game will be played outside on an artifical turf since Super Bowl X. I will watch the game and these unusal conditions adds some extra interest.
