In this thread, the DUmbasses whine about the absurd cost of Super Bowl tickets. All that money should be sent to the jug-eared Kenyan, so he can send it to them.

Super bowl: Section - Hall of Fame Suites $288,440.00 per ticket

Thinking about buying a few.... not
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=439x289339Note that's a Stubhub price, no indication whether anyone has paid that much. Nothing prevents you from offering a college basketball ticket for $1 million, but it might not sell. DUmmies have no idea about ticket scalping.

2. I'm in, if they will throw in the parking fee.
No way am I paying fifteen ****ing dollars to park.
DUmmy Sonoman is a Lousy Freeper Troll. You can't have a good whine at the DUmp anymore without a stupid Freeper spoiling it.

4. Funny you mention that...
I saw on the news tonight that stadium parking is in the $900-1000 range.
Indeed, the cost of the closest parking spot to Cowboys Stadium reaches a whopping $990, according to ParkWhiz.com. There are three entries for parking spots within 0.1 mile of the stadium ranging from $550 to $990.
If you're willing to walk half a mile, the price gets slightly more realistic at $137.50. The best "deal" appears to be spots for $55 about a mile from the stadium.

9. Amen you got that right.
A significant number of the world's population, and a goodly number of those are located here in the United States, lack basic necessities of life, i.e. food clothing and shelter, while a select few who enriched themselves at the expense of the many can afford to spend this amount of money for a three hour sporting event and will, at the same time, caterwaul at the decibel level of an SST about paying their proportionate share of taxes to maintain the system that protects their wealth. Makes one ill contemplating the policies that have promoted the creation of appallingly disgusting orgies of wanton excess such as this.

12. These ticket buyers are the new "Let them eat cake" crowd.
The natives are getting restless,very restless.
My own kids work so damned hard to support their families that when I read about things like this it infuriates me.
Dear jug-eared muslim: Please kill all those Super Bowl ponies.

5. THANK GOD THE TAX CUTS FOR THE TOP 2% PASSED!!1!
It would infuriate the DUmbasses even more if they realized that almost no one at the Super Bowl is paying their own way. At least 80-90% of the money paid out on Super Bowl tickets is legitimately written off as business entertainment expense. Thank you, DUmmies!

8. As far as the ridiculous parking fees are concerned, how can people be so dense?
Where's the logic in paying $55 to walk a mile when you could be driven right up to the door by taxi for less?
Never mind the moronic $1000 crap for nearby parking, why would any moron pay that rather than hire a limo for the day for much less?
Sometimes I think people are really just that stupid (or, they just want to throw money around so they can brag about it later).
I remember going to Cincinnati Reds games back in the 60s at Crosley Field. You could park on the street without meters, but it was in a bad neighborhood and you had to give a black kid a dollar to "watch your car". If you didn't pay, something might happen to it.

13. I agree. Wouldn't most attendees be flying in to the game?
Well, they aren't arriving by high speed rail, DUmmy.

10. The rich are waaay richer. Any questions, rubes?
That's one thing about the rich. They're always waaay richer than the DUmpmonkeys.
I wonder why that is.
