Best Read Friday - The Most Expensive Super Bowl Turns into A Bargain

FINANCIAL WATERFALL?...

There is big money in major events being scheduled in a top metropolitan city or its surrounding area.  Because of the demand, the prices can go up to 500% of the normal price especially for a sporting event that attracts thousands of tourists.  However, the Super Bowl that is labeled as the most expensive ever is now offering some unforeseen bargains.

Pricey hotels and restaurants in New York City and the cities surrounding MetLife stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey are dropping prices.  Fares published over a month ago are now slashed to as low as $100/night in New Jersey and back to the norm of $200-$250/night in New York City.  

Whether the reason be the cold weather or the lack of interest in being overcrowded in a perceived public transportation nightmare, bargains can be found even for tickets.  

Check out this article on why the Super Bowl economic expectations for the dual-state tourism might have run its course.
