NPR : VIP Fans of Patriots Dither over Game Guests: "The undefeated New England Patriots play for a chance to go to the Super Bowl this weekend, and for an unprecedented 18-0 record. It's the hottest ticket in the Boston area. For bigwigs with corporate suites at Gillette Stadium, deciding who gets to go to the game is a delicate art."Wow, I have to decide how much of the tree limbs I want to take out to the curb this weekend (still working on the ice storm clean up from before Christmas). I would hate to have problems like who is going to sit in my suite (if I could afford one that is).

Ever wonder what happens to the t-shirts that were made for the loosers of the Superbowl?
Far Away, Super Bowl’s Losers Will Be Champs - New York Times:
"The Super Bowl will end about 10 p.m. Sunday, and by 10:01 every player on the winning team — along with coaches, executives, family members and ball boys — could be outfitted in colorful T-shirts and caps proclaiming them champions.This is cool that they would do this. It would be just as easy to destroy them, but instead, someone has a shirt and cap to wear that needs them. Thanks for thinking of the other half of the world NFL.
The other set of championship gear — the 288 T-shirts and caps made for the team that did not win — will be hidden behind a locked door at Dolphin Stadium. By order of the National Football League, those items are never to appear on television or on eBay. They are never even to be seen on American soil.
They will be shipped Monday morning to a warehouse in Sewickley, Pa., near Pittsburgh, where they will become property of World Vision, a relief organization that will package the clothing in wooden boxes and send it to a developing nation, usually in Africa."
