The only way to watch a game for me is horizontal in a Motel 6 with a giant bag of Cheetos with the ads as nature intended - I prefer that to actually attending too.
One time when I was living for a while in New Orleans, just on the spur of the moment I went to watch a New Orleans Saints game, I had no clue how to buy tickets so I just bought one from a tout outside the stadium "Great view from this seat" he said, and the price was OK. When I got in I found the seat was in a special cordoned off section reserved for Saints player's family and friends and injured players and those not in the squad that week, so there I was a weedy white guy crammed in amongst loads of truly massive black guys and blinged-up babes - because there were some well known players in there the cameras frequently tracked over us and showed us on the big screens - they might as well have shown a big arrow pointing at me with the caption "Bought his ticket from a scalper". It was a great view though.
We have our own NtFL results competition on here which - of course - has just ended, but come next season you'd be more than welcome to join in, as would any member.
Rules at start of thread.
