THE HORROR! Do you think most people were saying "screw this shite, I'm turning it off". Or were they saying, "What the frick, lets wait and see what happens..this is crazy".

Reaching. All you had in your back pocket was the 30 minute delay, and you are scrambling to find excuses. Give it up. NOT ONCE did anyone put the NFL's name on the power outage. It was all New Orleans, all Super Dome.

Malfunctions like these open up a lot of liability issues. What if someone had been injured because the lights went out?

This isn't worth a response. Reply back to me if you want, but I'm not wasting my time with someone that won't change their stupid opinion.

I was talking more from a production stand point. Power goes out and suddenly you have an undefined amount of dead air. You have to fill that time with something then juggle how it affects advertisements. It's a major hassle.

You don't think the NFL wasn't embarrassed that it couldn't produce a Super Bowl without the power going out? Really?!

You don't think the NFL takes legal liability seriously?

New Orleans will obviously host a Super Bowl again, but the NFL isn't going to write off the blackout.
