Matthew Perry back on TV? Why is this the first I am hearing about it?! On CTV you say? Wow.

As for the game, can't stand either team, can't stand the Steelers more (except for Tomlin). So lose Steelers.

Apparently about 1000 seats at the stadium are deemed unsafe, and the NFL is going to pay 3x the face value back. Little consolation if you travelled and got bent over for hotel and local expenses. And, 4 entrances aren't open because of falling ice....pretty much a disaster for Jerry Jones.

Edit for the seat issue:

The league says 1,250 fans were affected. The NFL and Cowboys were able to relocate 850 of them to “similar or better seats.” 400 of them will be denied seats.

“These fans will each receive a refund of triple the cost of the face value of their ticket. The face value of these tickets are $900,” the NFL said in a statement. “The safety of fans attending the Super Bowl was paramount in making the decision and the NFL, Dallas Cowboys and City of Arlington officials are in agreement with the resolution.”
