The NFL has increased its offer of reimbursement to the more than 400 fans who were displaced from their Super Bowl seats. Fire marshalls declared the temporary seats brought into Texas Stadium specifically for the game unsafe shortly before the game leaving these fans to watch the game on a big screen outside. This represents the third offer presented by the NFL. The first two options which consisted of $2,400 -- three times the face value of the affected seats -- and a ticket to next year's Super Bowl or a ticket to any future Super Bowl plus airfare and hotel costs. After facing almost universal disdain for these initial offers to the fans, the NFL is now offering either $5,000 or reimbursement for "actual documented" Super Bowl expenses, whichever figure is higher. However with a potential public relations disaster on its hands in the form of a looming lockout, the NFL has decided that it is important to hit a PR home run on this issue. As a result, the NFL has also offered these fans additional compensation which money cannot buy including:
-One year subscription to Brett Favre's exclusive textline
-an official NFL Snuggie tailored to Bill Belichek's specifications
-Exclusive night on the town with Adam "Pacman" Jones including $1,000 cash to "make it rain"
-One "

-2 ounces of holy water blessed by Tim Tebow
-Complimentary copy of Josh McDaniels NFL Draft Guide for NFL Insiders
-Limo ride hosted by Jets
QB Mark Sanchez to the your local senior high school prom
-Replica of Mike Shanahan's hoop that Albert Haynesworth and Donovan McNabb were unable to jump through
-NY Jets sideline pass with one complimentary shot on an opposing player
-A locket containing one dreadlock from Marion Barber's head personally removed by
