These look kinda cool. I don't live down there and if I did I wouldn't be able to afford them but thats pretty nice. You can keep up with your fantasy team and watch the game up closer than in the luxury boxes. :lol:

Fans these days need a bunch of fancy schmancy crap to watch football. Heck, a true fan should be able to sit for 3 hrs on bleacher seats and be fine. All those rich *** fvcks that buy those luxury suites think they are too damn good to sit down in the open air with common fans. Screw every one of them.

$75,000 for four recliners, a TV (or four smaller TVs) and iPads.
Oh, also there's food and drinks. And football.
Seventy-five thousand dollars. For this.Aqua4Ever04, Paul 13 and Bpk like this. -
We are going to try anything to get the Super Bowl event back in Miami. Im sure theres more ideas coming out soon.

Oh the private entrance & exit that is being paid for with tax dollars.....some democracy we have here now.
And to think he wanted to have OUR tax dollars pay for this. Wouldn't have been nice to have that EMT/Fireman that was laid off so the 1%'ers can have their luxury living rooms ?

Also, you know Ross opted to pay for these himself right? or nahStitches likes this. -
ross could be an amazing owner if he could just get past some of his short comings, there is a lot to like about him.

And think of it this way....those rich jagoffs are keeping them from raising prices on other seats. Let them milk cash from those that can easily afford it. Better then applying it to the rest of the seats.finfansince72 and MrClean like this. -
Actual shark teeth planted on the sidelines.
Once every game, a lucky fan will receive a single javelin that he/she can hurl only once at any visiting player, but only during regulation. No retries.
The visiting locker room blasts the unwitting coaches and players with small amounts of short wave radiation.

why would anyone get upset over this? If there are people willing to pay for this stuff, then more power to them and to Ross. and in many stadiums, these luxury suites are purchased by companies, not individuals.

A lot of those suites are "bought" by businesses, state officials, etc. At FedEx field, they are owned by a Whos Who of Defense Contractors. I look at it as super inflated price to keep standard seats normalized.

Cool idea for those who can afford them. Not sure why anyone here is complaining. Maybe because, they can't afford them?
This kind of stuff is all over the place in stadiums and arena's. Heck.. the company I work for has a suite at the local arena for junior hockey (which is a pretty big deal round here) and it's awesome. I get that only a small percentage of people will get to experience a game this way, but it really shouldn't matter.
I think some people just want to ***** for the sake of *****ing about something Ross is doing. Really, the stadium needs upgrades, from general seating to luxury seating/suites. So... who really cares? Just be happy its actually getting done.resnor likes this. -

Hell with that. What they really should do is to put a couple extra inches between the rows of seats to accommodate us long legged folks better.
it's prett rough sitting there the entire game with your knees jammed right into the seat in front of you. just a suggestion..............Paul 13 likes this. -

It would appear these lounges aren't "suites" in that they aren't closed off areas... but you can get a 32 inch tv for an additional $15k... or four 24 inch tv's for the value price of $30k. Wouldn't the TV get in the way of the game? :shifty: And if you recline too far back you can't see the field... hell I'm not paying that much if I have to share the air with the common folk sitting around me... oh it's all hilarious. they shouldn't put the price (it just makes it funnier). I mean, the local fancy country club here... you don't ask how much it is. If you have to ask, you can't afford it.
This doesn't bother me though. Unlike the price of beer or food at these games. -
-
Beyond that, the majority of the high-end seating arrangements go to corporate sponsors. If you're spending $5M on advertising during the Super Bowl, you probably are getting a free suite. -
The reality is that most of these type of things go to corporate sponsors. Very few people are paying retail price for them.
I actually like the idea of TVs, because I love watching all the games. One of the reasons I don't go to live games is because you basically end up spending your Sunday watching two football games. I need my action. I want to follow 8-10 games at once. -

Personally,
If I was wining and dining a Client...those would be perfect. Plenty of room to take in the game, as well the privacy to talk bidnass at the same time. -

That's what I want to see...don't have much hope for intimidating stadium features from this organization/braintrust. -
Do you get to throw your beer at the TV screens when Coyle outsmarts himself again?
-
I'm dubbing these the "Robin Hood Seats". This is the Fins way of taking from the rich and giving to the poor, lol. By getting the revenue from the people willing to pay for these... they can afford to keep the "cheap seats" inexpensive and affordable to the average fan.
Thanks rich people for paying for a portion of my ticket! lol -
These mainly are being built for the SB IMO.
