I can however understand why Aramike thinks it is unfair since for your fan in the US who would go it would cost a lot of money. On the other hand with the pound down the toilet you might get a good deal.
You need to understand - we're not just talking about a football game here. I'm quite alright with teams electing to play one or two games abroad.

What we are talking about is the Superbowl - the championship game. To me it does a disservice to fans to take the ultimate contest which THEY supported overseas. It's like saying, "hey, thanks, but your dollars have only gotten us this far. We're going to take you for granted and pursue further ducats overseas."

It's a total "F.U." to the fans who made this sport great.

Again, a game here and there, I'm quite alright with. But, THE game? Not so much...
