I'm really burned out on the whole live experience regarding the NFL.

I went to several Cards games when they were still at ASU, and enjoyed myself.
While most people were bitching about the heat, I was loving it.. Why?

Because it wasn't packed, and it wasn't ridiculously expensive.
I got into two fights in SF while watching the Cards in a 5-6 year span, both while doing nothing except wearing Cards gear and watching the game.

A buddy begged me to go to the Chargers Chiefs game at the end of last season because his wife bugged out(free ticket for me) I told him to call everyone else he knows, and if he couldn't find a taker, I would go.

With my "Free" ticket I end up dropping $60 in gas for my truck, I bought both of us 3-4 beers each.. So that was around $70 or so AND I got the privilege of losing an hour of my life trying to park upon arrival and almost 2 hours to get out of the parking lot.

To each his own, and I really appreciate all you Cards fan's who show your support.

As I got older, I just didn't have the patience any longer for the BS.

Me neither. I normally sit in S111, but my account has been active with two seats for 19 years (before that, I was just the extra seat on someone else's account).

For Tampa, I was selected for the extra cheap seats (only $500 each) as well, so I'm pleased to report that I've won the lottery twice. Sure glad winning once has no impact on winning later.

Yeah I got picked for the cheap $500 seats in Tampa as well. Altough I wasn't selected till the third drawing.

However I haven't received any emails regarding this years SB (good or bad) and I have 3 accounts (total of 5 seats). I wonder if you only get the email if you are selected?

I have a friend who also got no notice but regularly gets all of the other notices. We've decided to view it as she didn't get picked, but as they sift through what actually gets purchased and what's left over, she may only be on the cusp.

But to know for sure, log into your Account Manager. If you were chosen, there will be an invoice there (but don't pay it: you have to pay when you pick up your tickets).

Did I miss when we were supposed to put in? I haven't gotten any email whatsoever.

EDIT: just kidding, I found the email. Not selected. I really wanted to resell these things to pay some bills too. Oh well.
