Albany,n.y. Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Well I did it again-I bought Super Bowl futures from FirstDIBZ for Super Bowl XLIV in Miami. My cost was $40 per seat future + $5.60 fee for a total of $85.60. If the Bills win the AFC in 2009, I get to buy 2 tickets at face value. I refuse to let this season keep my optimism down!

You would be better off putting the 86.50 down on the bills making the super bowl/winning the AFC. My guess is if you get it in before all the free agency signings(sometime right after the super bowl) the bills will be going off at about 35 or 40 :1. If they go off @ 40:1 & they by some miracle make it you got yourself $3,460. Much better bet then this silly thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordio Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 He could likely sell two SB tickets for more than $3, 460. You think he could sell 2 upper deck super bowl tickers for minimum $1,750 each? Man, I did not realize the cheap seats go for that high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albany,n.y. Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 & actually probably face value for the ticket is what $600 or so so he would actually have to sell the tickets for $2,350 to make more money. Figure the base price of the ticket between $800-1,000. 2 tickets cost say $1,800 +85.60=$1,886. Now if I go to an internet ticket broker, it's $2,500-$3,000 per ticket. My main goal is I want to see the game & make the trip affordable enough so that I can go with a friend who cannot afford to spend as much as I can. So really my own ticket is $43 +$900=$943. I can afford the extra $1,500-$2,000 but my friend can't. So this is the only way I can get him to the Super Bowl & not end up going alone. If I put the $43 on at even 50-1, I still don't have enough to buy the one ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJPearl2 Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 You'd be better off taking that money, shitting on it, and flushing it down the toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
