Wichita Chiefs Fan Wins Super Bowl Tix for LIFE
He got the golden Bud Light can in a 30-pack in Wichita!
He's in his early 50's, so he's probably got about 30 years to go to the game. Hopefully he'll see the Chiefs in one between now and Super Bowl 80! http://www.kmbc.com/article/wichita-...ickets/8663091 |

Transportation from Wichita to the Superbowl would cost more than the tickets. I'm guessing he goes one time...

That's what I would do. Go one time, then sell every year unless the Chiefs are in it... so sell them every year.

I could never put myself through a Chiefs SB in person. After the loss I'd probably throw myself off of the top balcony in effigy.

He works in the shop here at Cessna. He's going down to Houston tomorrow as he's got a bunch of PR stuff to do this first year.

when they're doing the promo event stuff, and hand him a Bug Light for a photo op, he should say "nah, I'm good. I got my own" then open a tasty Moose Drool or something from Lagunitas.

I think I would go every other year. Sell them next year save that cash for travel expenses for the following Super Bowl. Wash repeat.

Yeah, the bad thing about this whole deal would be having to choke down a 30 pack of Bud Light!

Before he wastes his time, has anyone told him that the Super Bowl is just the Patriots again? He might want to turn down the prize.

I've heard on these big prizes that sometime the tax implications can be nasty. For example, you win a trip to Florida, and the airline reports the prize value at the full rate that no one pays, and the hotel reports the room value at the rack rate that no one pays, just so they can write the prizes off as being very valuable. But the problem is that the "value" then flows through to the person, who ends up paying income taxes that may cost as much as paying for a trip at normal rates.
So I wonder what the tax implications are for this guy. If the beer company is reporting these tickets as having a value of $2,700*, I wonder if the "value" of the prize is going to be $80,000+, meaning that this guy will get a tax bill of $20,000 to $30,000. * Estimated low-end price of a Super Bowl ticket from here: http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/20...he-outrageous/ Just for fun, read the article and see if you can find the saddest sentence in the world for Chiefs fans.
