If you could even get them, Super Bowl LVI tickets were averaging over $6000 a piece.

And to think, Me and my stepfather at that time, went to I believe Superbowl III in 69. I'm pretty sure he didn't pay anywhere near what that kind of money was then.

I just saved $6000...

That's nothing. You know how much money I've saved over the years on Superbowl tickets by just being a cowboys fan?

The average price for Superbowl III tickets was $12. Equivalent to about $95 in today's dollars.

My stepfather was from Wisconsin. He bought the tickets before the playoffs thinking the Packers were sure to be in the Superbowl a third time. We lived on Grand Bahama Island at the time, so Miami was just about a half hour flight from there. I was a Johnny Unitas fan at the time, so I was excited to watch him play in person. The Jets weren't suppose to win DAMMIT!

Ha! I'd nearly forgotten that you were the role model for Hank Snow's "I've Been Everywhere".

Stepfather was a dealer (blackjack) in Las Vegas, he was offered a lot of money to be a blackjack inspector at the El Casino in the Bahamas. When my mother divorced him in 1971, my mother and I moved back to Las Vegas. I lived in Freeport and then Lucaya while living from February 1968 to November 1971 on Grand Bahama Island. I was aged 10 to 14 then.

Shoe, or animal?

When we sleep our eyes are not completely shut. A small crack remains in the eyelids and that is how you can wake up with dry eye if there is a fan blowing on you. It is also the reason doctors tell you to get better sleep do so in a dark room as your eye can still be reporting to the brain if there is that damn television going on like a disco flashing floor.

Shoe, or animal?

Shoes for sure. I'll let you know on the other after next zoo visit.

Sounds suspiciously like the story about a brass monkey.

Doc might've been saying "Huckle bearer" (and in the script he certainly was) but from what I've heard, Val Kilmer flubbed the line and the director liked the way it sounded, so it was changed. So the spoken line actually is "I'm your huckleberry".

My Mum was at the first super bowl.
She ended up sitting next to Barbara Eden aka "I dream of Jeanie"
Mum worked for the Chargers starting when they moved to San Diego from Los Angeles

Barbara Eden influenced more Air Force careers than just Major Tony Nelson...

1965 to 1970 Kennedy halves are 80% silver. According to a pawn shop owner today. (They aren't; they're 40%.) He argued with me. My cash and I left while he was trying to pull out a "book" to "show me." All of this after one of his clerks (whom I've bought from before) told me they needed to clear that case out for remodeling.
No prices on anything, so I'm sure the price would have been double what it should have been.
