Super Bowl XL is almost here and you don't have
tickets, do you? eBay has you covered though; I found a set of VIP
Suite Tickets that are going for $6,500 at the time this post was written. Now, would you spend that much money for
a night of football bliss or would you put that wad of cash towards a great HDTV package? Check out what that same
$6,500 can get you in our proposed package.- Sony 60-inch SXRD HDTV - $4049.95
- Tech Craft Stand - $224.99
- Terk TV5 OTA antenna - $49.99
- Onkyo TX-SR603X receiver - $499.99
- Polk Audio RTi8 Floor speakers (pair) - $699.99
- Polk Audio CSi3 Center Channel - $199.99
- Polk Audio RTi4 Bookshelves (pair) - $259.99
- Polk Audio 12-inch subwoofer - $349.99
- Ben Roethlisberger jersey - $49.99
- 4 Large Pizzas from Hungry Howies - $31.96
- 1 keg of Miller Light - $79.99
Ultimate Super Bowl party package = $6,496.82
Super Bowl Tickets = $6,499.99
This is a difficult choice. Two tickets for a day of football or our ultimate Super Bowl Party; not only this year, but every year afterwards. Well, I guess you will need to get more pizzas and beer. What would you do? Take the tickets or the package?
Hands down I'd take the tickets. Sure the HDTV package will be there long after but the memories of being at a Super Bowl last a life time.
I think I would probably have to go for the HDTV package though. I'm not a hige sports fan, so the long lasting effects of the HD package would last longer for me...
