Cowboys Stadium had temporary seats brought in for the Super Bowl. 850 fans were left with no seats with field view due to late seat installments and the fire marshal inspection. Situation was so bad that people were contained in a fenced off area for nearly two hours, while other seats were located for them. Some people were quoted claiming officials took them to watch the game at a bar. The NFL offered a refund for any fans three times the face value of the seats. Seats were sold at face value of $800, therefore equalling a $2,400 refund. Some people were quoted for paying $5,000 for the trip and would actually lose money in the occurrence of a refund. I wouldn't want to be those people.
