There are 10+ dome stadiums plus other warm-weather outdoor venues... Roger Goodell & the NFL are kissing the a$$ of the NE Liberals...

The best thing that could happen is 4+ turnovers and a 10 to 7 final score in rain or snow...

WHO REALLY CARES? When they selected the location, they should have anticipated the weather as a potential problem. “Whimps” and dumb asses, all of them.

The Super Bowl has been played in Green Bay under extreme winter weather conditions, why didn’t they “delay” or change back then? It’s about MONEY folks.

They’re just little kitties!!! Have a heart! Oh, you mean the NFL. Sorry. Yeah, you’re right. It’s my desire to see the limousine liberals inconvenienced.

To the best of my knowledge, there's never been a Super Bowl held in Green Bay. There have been plenty of NFL championship games there, but these were before the first post-merger Super Bowl between the Packers and Chiefs, which was played in Los Angeles.

The crowd at the Super Bowl isn't a normal football crowd - there are a few real fans of the teams lost in a sea of well-heeled party-goers there for a big event. If you want today's version of the old championship games, look to the conference championship games held last week, not the Super Bowl - that's a social event for the rich where they happen to play a game.

I understand your thinking about Superbowl fans, and we can be certain there are many of those who bought the tickets more for showing off than being real fans.

However ticket prices as high as they are, 95% of ticket buyers will show up, or at least give their tickets away to real fans.
