Ya in 2011 we flew to Chicago, rented a car and drove to Indy on a Friday, bought our tickets from a reputable source in Indy, $1800 a piece. I was 28, so really the first time I had the opputrtunity to do it, in 2007 I was too broke. At that time I had season tickets with a buddy, and obviously was a big Pats fan, me and three other buddies went sort of as a bucket list experience, not knowing what to expect.
It was unbelievable, I really can't describe the atmosphere, we spent all day downtown Saturday at the fan fests and behind the ESPN broadcast getting on tv back home and shit. Met an insane amount of celebrities and sports personalities at bars, pissed next to Ryan Fitzpatrick who was cool to us because we were from Boston and he went to Harvard, argued with Trent Dilfer, hung out with James Ihedigbo's mother and girlfriend, just an unreal time. Indy locals talked mad shit but it was all in good fun. Game sucked because they lost, and walking out of the stadium and having the Giants fans taunting you sucked, but the whole experience was so great I vowed to go back if the Pats ever did. You can see why people go to every super bowl even if their team is not involved.
In 2014 I went back with the same crew of guys, one of them had gotten 4 tickets from work for face value, so we got in for $1200. We did it right this time though, rented a house in Glendale from Thurs to Mon, had a pool, went out every night, it was the balls. Obviously game was unbelievable thought I was going to see the Pats lose again, and then Butler picking off the pass it was unbelieveable.
Same 4 are going back this year if the Pats go, if Cowboys go you should definitely spend the money to get in, literally nothing like it.
