" Players set to cash in making appearance at "Super Bowl" by Brad Potts, v8, i 38, page 21

This aricle was interesting to me because we are talking about paying people to show up at the Super Bowl get free accomidations for a week tickets to the game and other perks for simple going to the greatest event in the in the USA as far as sports go. I really think the money could have been used better. I know I didn't care at all that Tom Brady was at the coin toss or that Franco Harris walked out of a tunnel before the game. Who cares!! and to pay them 50 to 100 thousand dollars to do so is insane if you ask me. Instead why don't we give away free Super Bowl T-shirts (nice ones) at the gate and other things that will make nice keep sakes for thoses who paid the thousands of dollars it takes just to get in the gates. They could have also offer free parking to those who had a ticket insead of wasting over 1 million dollars on X NFL who know one really cared to see anyway. I think that as far as marketing the money could have been spent alot better. Maybe with another big name band in the parking lot for tail gating, or something else for the people who spent thousands of dollars to make the trip.
