Here's What Taylor Swift Will Be Eating In Her $2.5 Million Super Bowl Suite ($2.5 million suite includes lobster quesadillas)
Yahoo ^ | 2/9/2024 | Megan Schaltegger

Posted on 02/11/2024 6:30:27 AM PST by vespa300

The fancy schmancy suites (which cost $2.5 million) will have an equally high-end menu. Think: shrimp cocktail tower, king crab fried rice, wagyu tenderloin, lobster and steak quesadillas, and breakfast for dinner with buttermilk fried chicken and waffles with maple syrup.

They’re still filling stadiums. I mean OK they’re not making a billion dollars on a 60 date tour, but that’s the difference between being A star and THE star. Swift right now is THE star. And I’m not sure Eilish is old enough to drink legally, so definitely not a has-been.

Is it $2.5M for just the one game or the whole season?

Organizations that I’ve known to have private boxes had them for the whole season — there might be some fine print that says “except the Super Bowl.”

I remember Hemingway being a big aficionado of the bullfights, but I didn’t know about the other two. Thanks for the information.

Nope. Vast increase since c.2000. Period.

I’m not talking a few things. And obvious things. I’m talking everywhere, on everything. We even have Spanish commercials on TV just now.

It’s changed since 20-some years ago. Certainly in my area, but also on nationwide corp and gov as indicated. It’s far beyond what you’re talking about.

Agree to disagree.

No one knows who a damn model is. Seriously, including Melania. We have to be told esp. if they make it in show biz. That’s why Brady didn’t get the publicity.

Swift is even bigger than Jessica Simpson was for Romo. So Romo got plenty of mention for her, but mostly because he lost when she was around. She was big, but not as big as Dwift.

There’s more people everywhere so of course there’s more illegals.

We had Spanish commercials on TV in the 70s if you knew where to look.

It hasn’t changed. We’re not agreeing to disagree because you are factually WRONG on all counts.

Not from my seat of the last 50 years in the mid-Atlantic. Did Lowe’s have Spanish signs and subtitles everywhere before 20 years ago? Did Hechingers or Home Depot? Did your doctors all have Spanish options on their phones? There is a lot of catering to illegals because liberals push all their narratives.

That’s my view. Meanwhile we have lots of Asians but nowhere do corporations cater to them with signage et al.

You’re just not going to the right parts of town, or the radio dial. George Carlin had a whole routine about growing up listening to Spanish stations. I remember when one of my family members moved into a poor neighborhood in Tucson in the late 70s and going to visit them and suddenly the billboards were in Spanish and they were advertising radio and TV stations I’d never heard of. Not to mention the Mexican markets.

As for catering to Asians go to a neighborhood where they’re clustered. Service signage in San Francisco is in English, Spanish and Chinese. That was back in the 90s. I remember getting in a cab in Seattle in 2002 to find the cabby reading a newspaper in Russian. If there’s enough of a population of them to be worth marketing to somebody is going to.

You might be only encountering Spanish, and only recently, but that’s just because your life wasn’t taking you to those places. It happens. Last night was the first time I ever knowingly heard an Usher, my life doesn’t take me to the sections of the world he’s in. None of it is pushing any narratives, it’s chasing dollars. The American dream.

Where I live in DFW, we’ve got folks from India everywhere, but it seems corporate America hasn’t figured out how the tap into that demographic.

India can be a tough nut. They’ve got a lot of different languages, and different scripts for the languages. Sure Hindi is the official language, but not everybody actually speaks it, or reads the official script for it. Had a bunch of Indian guys at my first company and I talked to them about that. They each spoke 3 or 4 Indian languages, plus English, and step 1 of meeting each other was figuring out which language they had in common. And for a couple it was English. Corporate America in DFW might have looked at that mountain and said “screw it, they all speak English”.

That’s actually the silver lining to Colonialization, they do have a common language in English.

If you read my posts you’d know I stated our Koreans (or FTM, our Moslems who have “exploded” since 2001, God help us) are not catered to. They’re so clustered they finally did get to build pagodas on our main National Road portion calling it “Korean Way”. Other than that, they of course cater to each other so their businesses have Korean all over.

The point was how nationally a big deal is made about illegals (that is what it is, because there were plenty Mexicans in the USA before that were legal).

Not locally, though that’s indicative too.

Cinco de Mayo? Nobody knew what the hell that was until the last 20 years. Mexican-based kid movie featuring cultural things like that “Day of the Dead” creepiness, which likewise is showing up more in ads and things to buy at Michael’s. It’s absurd. Everything is to cater to illegals and make us “accept” it more. This didn’t happen with legal Mexicans who have been here for generations.

Don’t talk about “fact” when you can’t point out any data. I can’t either unless I research, but in MY perspective, things have gotten much more “Mexican” in my last 20 years whereas the first 30 were not.

It’s not simply more (illegal) Mexicans, it’s to undermine normal, European, American culture and principles. Just like TV shows featuring homos everywhere. Push it to force normalization.

Finis.

I read it, but as I pointed out just because you haven’t SEEN them being catered to doesn’t mean they aren’t. I lived in Tucson for years before my aunt moved to the part of town where I could see it. And if she hadn’t moved there I don’t know when I would have seen it.

Problem is your “point” is WRONG. Cinco de Mayo started being a big deal in the 80s. When AB was selling Corona in America, and it wasn’t doing well. So they started combing through the calendar looking for something they could push, like Guinness was already doing with St Patrick’s Day. Low and behold they found this obscure little holiday that 90% of Mexicans didn’t care about, but it had a nice ring to it, short words that rhymed. BOOM Cinco de Mayo was born. Much like the chimichanga it’s really an American creation using Mexican ingredients.

My first exposure to Day of the Dead was on the cover of Oingo Boingo’s 1985 Dead Man’s Party. Big deal. And again up here it’s very Americanized. Just like Halloween, which is really an Irish holiday but not celebrated there at all like it is here.

I’ve pointed you to lots of data. You just don’t like any of it. You are, quite simply, wrong.

Again you are saying I am wrong and you have facts.

I have facts too. MY facts here are that Cinco de Mayo was not a thing until the last 2 decades. You can claim it is merely corporate - which also isn’t good - but as far as I’m concerned in the Northeast (yes, I lived in CT as an adult briefly and spent trips going to Maine in my youth for grandfather), there was never mention of this obscure holiday until then.

And as another point, a Korean woman here who did nails for our Vietnamese hair dresser’s salon was quite irritated that everything is in Spanish, but no official gov or corporate accommodations for them. Again, this is in the last 2 decades she complains whereas we’ve known the Viet owner for 35 years.

This is my experience, period. It’s not “wrong” as this is my indisputable experience, as a highly observational engineer mind, too. My husband, mother (Baltimorean for 80 years), other relatives here around my age.

You can claim your experience, I claim mine. That includes my observation of at-large corporate interests, never mind government.
