    Do you plan on watching USFL games this ears.
    Official Site of the United States Football League

    Tickets are only $15 a person!

    I think I read it right - Super bowl tickest start at $5,000???

    Las Vegas Raiders have the highest ticket prices in the NFL - $373!

    It's a shame they don't have any teams located anywhere in the Western United States.

    Does this really have any connection to the 'old' USFL? For instance, who owns the New Jersey Generals?

    No. The only spring football I care the least bit about is college football spring practice for the Arkansas Razorbacks.

    I flew home from Germany in 1983, on a MAC flight - when we landed, at Ft Dix, McQuire AFB (our stop was Charleston, SC) they turned on the TV set to the Foodball game - and it was the NY Generals playing!

    From Wiki:
    They initially had an uphill battle to get a lease at Giants Stadium, but were able to obtain one on condition that they brand their team as "New Jersey" rather than "New York." They named the team the "Generals" after the large number of generals based in New Jersey during the Revolutionary War.[2]

    I was born and raised in California, lived the first 55 years of my life in California, but I'm a fan of the Dallas Cowboys, so I know precisely what you mean.
