But as libertine says the deck is the best seat in the house.

Second-best.

not if SFC reserves it

I'm pretty sure the SFC ain't coughin' up enough coinage to reserve it.

ok then where is the best seat in the house?

[TallyW]

How much do one of these things go for this year?????

[SuperJon]

Someone mentioned a low-end Mercedes.

[thesportscritic]

my guess maybe $55,000

[givemethemic]

not even in the ballpark.....around half of that...

[flameshaw]

so like a high end ford?

[thesportscritic]

$32,000?

[Libertine]

ok then where is the best seat in the house?

Mine. It's just a little hard to get to.

so how do you get up there? is there some type of ladder behind the pressbox?

[Libertine]

Yup. It's not for the faint of heart but the gameday view is outstanding.

[SuperJon]

I chickened out, but then again, I'm scared of heights and had a bad experience with ladders.

I dropped by last night and took a look at it. The inside is definately top notch, and the view from the top is the best in the stadium. So I was thinking, you could probably fit 24 people inside, easy with an additional 6 floating up top and inside. More is definately possible, but lets go with 30 people per suite. Lets say at $25k, that's $833 per person for the season. And 6 home games means each person is essentially paying $139 per game. Is that a good deal? Certainly out of my price range.

[El Scorcho]

Good deal? No. Worth it for some people with that kind of money? Probably. Good fundraising idea? Indubatably!

[SuperJon]

It's a good deal for someone with a lot of money that wants to donate money for the school.

[LUconn]

I'd imagine a suite doesnt include admission either. But what's another $10 per game when you're paying that. I hope, I can be making that kind of coin one day. I wonder if it comes with a Flames Club membership. I'd better look into dealing drugs.

[El Scorcho]

I just caught a clip on the Today show about self-made millionaires. They talked to a woman who took out a $1k loan and turned it into just over $1bn through investing.

I wonder if she likes football?

[LUconn]

was it day trading? I'd say she sounds pretty lucky more than self made.

[El Scorcho]

They were promo'ing a special on MSNBC so they weren't heavy on the details, unfortunately.

I agree. She sounds very fortunate.

[FlameNForest]

I heard they are planning on having all ten suites on the same side of the stadium. I guess they can squeeze five on each side of the press box.

I wonder if she is married. I have a brother that is looking for a potential spouse with a net worth in excess of $1,000,000,000.00.

[Libertine]

I heard they are planning on having all ten suites on the same side of the stadium. I guess they can squeeze five on each side of the press box.

That's not true. They'll go on both sides. They'll be hard-pressed to get five in at all on the pressbox side.

[SumItUp]

That's not true.

It is true based on the information that is being sent out by the Flames Club.

[Libertine]

If they can wedge all 10 in on that side, I'll be mightily impressed.

[TDDance234]

I was a little worried when I first saw them -- but they are top notch for what we're trying to accomplish, IMO.

[LUconn]

I'm seriously concidering knocking on the door of one of these things in the first game and asking the owner if I can be his friend. If my chances are better than 10% of them saying "sure" then statistically one of the owners is bound to let me in.
