DALLAS - A lawsuit is being drafted for several Super Bowl ticket holders who said they got duped by the Dallas Cowboys.

But these aren’t the fans that didn’t get a seat during the game because of the whole temporary seating fiasco. These are members of a group that calls itself the Founders of Cowboys Stadium. They are season ticket holders who have personal seat licenses.

The NFL allocates Super Bowl tickets. So besides those offered to the two teams in the game, the host team, in this case the Cowboys, gets a small percentage of tickets to offer to some season ticket holders at face value.

The $1,200 tickets were not for their usual seats and they knew that. But they said the lesser seats did not live up to the billing.

The ticket holders said they were offered seats with some of the best sightlines in the stadium. Instead they were put in obstructed view seats in temporary bleachers. And, almost all of the seats lacked a view of the Cowboys video board, they said.

They tossed around words like fraud and deception.

A California law firm is expected to file a suit on behalf of the Founders on Wednesday.

The Cowboys organization said it had no comment.
 
What went right for Dallas over their Super Bowl hosting? It seems like it was a complete fiasco with the exception of the game itself.
 
Nothing...because they rushed everything. They should have waited a couple of more years and worked out all of the bugs at the new stadium. But they wanted to hurry and show the world their new house...
 
Seems some season ticket holders are filing a law suit because they say they got sub standard seating instead of their regular seats.

Those that had the $800 tickets in the closed section. Getting $2400 and a non-tranferable ticket to next years game isn't going to feed the bulldog, IMHO of course. The time I took off from work, the cost of flying and not counting the hassle due to weather (not a NFL problem but,,), inflated hotel and food prices. Maybe you break even? I wanted to see my team this year, not the Lions and Rams :sarcasm:next year.
btw 10 bucks for a draft beer??
