Besides as they said getting a ticket alone will set you back far too much. The travel cost, hotel room and other expences are all over inflated to take advantage of the sports fan. As more HD sets are sold and more events are aired in HD the crowds will die to a trickle. All of this could cascade into sports being played on a sound stage. I give it 15 to 20 years before that happens, but it will happen.]]>Jan 17th 2007 4:12PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/Jan 17th 2007 4:31PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/
That probably didn’t factor into the people’s decisions. For the most part, the cost for the tickets and travel or TV is likely coming out of the respondents’ pockets than given to them freely (a rarity). A very nice HDTV and the costs associated with sending one person to one Super Bowl may cost the same (I don’t know, never been to one) but I’m guessing it would be more for the game. If all it comes down to is between sending one person (let alone the entire family and some friends) to the Super Bowl (I’m guessing $2000+) or getting a nice large HDTV (to enjoy even after the Super Bowl) it’s not hard to see how a lot of respondents would choose the latter.]]>Jan 17th 2007 5:35PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/Jan 17th 2007 7:11PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/Jan 18th 2007 8:39AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/01/17/survey-shows-hdtv-preferred-over-live-super-bowl-experience/
Apparently they don’t.]]>Jan 23rd 2007 5:32AM
