My Super Bowl XLV itinerary looks thusly:
Blogging Super Bowly all week. Broadcasting on 105.3 The Fan from radio row all week. And finding time to squeeze in some partying Tuesday (NFL Media at House of Blues), Wednesday (Aces & Angels at Fair Park), Friday (Pamela Anderson at FIG) and Saturday (Playboy at A Loft Hotel). With any luck I’ll also be at Prince’s concert/bash on the hallowed grounds of Reunion Arena Friday night.
I’m lucky enough to not have to pay $900 for parking and I have a seat in the press box for Sunday’s game. Buddy of mine decided this was a once-in-a-lifetime event, so he bought a suite for XLV.
His price tag?
Field-level suite accomodating 28 on the 5-yard line: $105,000. What exactly does that get you?
