And, if you are a playing local, they are not offering seats for the SB parties. Only for visitors.
The Super Bowl party situation is the big issues.

This has become monetized in most venues, and there are not a lot of public viewing areas for free. If you want to go to a party, most are over $100/pp unless you were invited due to casino play.

Most people are probably just looking at this and saying, "I'd rather just stay home and watch it on the big screen with my friends."

This shit is where Vegas drops the ball. There should be a real effort to allow the public to watch the Super Bowl together for free, in various venues around town, and then count on making money from them before/after the game.

But the accountants think everything has to be immediately monetized nowadays.
