$3K for $600 tix? Who's problem is that?
Lawsuit? I'd like to see it.

I happen to have won Superbowl tickets here several years ago. Look it up.

Do I know you? I don't smoke crack.
Lol, if you aren't given tickets or win them, then you're going to be paying well beyond face to go to a superbowl, you act as though people shouldn't have paid that much for tickets. This was an absolute nightmare for the displaced ticket holders, the NFL completely dropped the ball on this one and the compensation doesn't even come close to making up for what occurred.

Right up until game time people were huddled after being told they couldn't sit in their seats. As the national anthem was being sung, someone walked up and handed them a piece of paper telling them they would be compensated 3 times their ticket price, no explanation, no apology, just an escort to a bar where they could watch if they wanted. Only a very small fraction got relocated, most had already left. The fact that they were working right up until game day to put in these extra seats is horrible planning and basically comes down to pure greed as Jerry Jones desperately wanted it to be the largest attended super bowl ever.

This will be easy slam dunk lawsuits for those who pursue it, most that braved the harsh weather conditions to travel from Pitt and GB spent min 5 times their ticket price on the trip.
