Super Bowl XLV ticket faux pas
More than 2,000 people bought tickets to see Super Bowl XLV at AT&T Stadium, only to show up for the big game to discover the seats listed on their tickets didn’t exist.
Talk about a fiasco.
After a trial, which concluded in March of 2015, a jury found the NFL guilty of breaching its ticket contract. The end result is that they awarded “varying amounts between $5,600 and $22,000—a total of nearly $76,000″ to those who were robbed of their chance to see the game in the seats they were promised.
While I’m sure those folks were grateful to get their money back, you can bet they would rather have been able to watch the game in the seats they paid for originally.
