    Well, those people had tickets. Jerry just didn't have their seats ready.

    And Allegiant Stadium has a much smaller capacity (65,000) than Jerry World.

    Vegas is a zoo on SB weekend when the game isn't even played there.

    I'm still stuck on how close the Lions were to the Super Bowl.

    I don't see them choking away a 27-10 lead.

    It's amazing how a franchise can't get out of its way over and over and over.

    AFC: 55.47 million, largest audience on record for AFC title game.

    NFC: 56.69 million, most-watched TV program outside of the Super Bowl since 2012 Giants-49ers. Excluding Super Bowls, only three NFL games have averaged more since 1991-92 season.

    Last year's Super Bowl was 115 million....they couldn't push like 130 could they? The AFC was "only" 2 million more than last year

    I was told that people had become disillusioned with football.

    Wild. Super Bowl ain’t about the people in the seats. Gotta be the smallest stadium to host since … when?

    Super Bowl LV (24,835) doesn't count because of COVID.

    Super Bowl I (61,946) wasn't a sellout.

    Super Bowl LIV in 2020 in Miami (49ers-Chiefs) only had 62,417.

    Super Bowl XXVI in 1992 in Minneapolis (Bills-Washington) had 63,130.

    Super Bowl XXXVII in 2003 in San Diego (Raiders-Bucs) had 67,603.

    Five others had sub-70,000.

    I’m also intrigued by the whole Paradise, Nevada thing. Does the AP dateline the stadium as LAS VEGAS? And does Eddie Money, who played a pregame show at the Wardrobe Malfunction Super Bowl, still have tickets?
