Attack on mass transit seen as top Super Bowl security risk BY SCOTT MALONE NEW YORK Wed Jan 29, 2014 5:53pm EST
(Reuters) - Bomb attacks of the kind that tore through mass transit sites in Russia ahead of the upcoming Sochi Olympics are a top concern of security officials preparing for Sunday's Super Bowl, the head of the New Jersey State Police said on Wednesday.
While law enforcement officials said they were not aware of any specific threats targeting the February 2 National Football League championship in East Rutherford, New Jersey, attacks like those that killed 34 people in two days in Russia late last year are their biggest worry.
"Of particular concern to us is what was going on overseas in Volgograd in regard to the Sochi Olympics. As you know both of those bombings were targeting mass transit," Rick Fuentes, superintendent of the New Jersey State Police, told reporters. "That is a concern with the mass transit; we've prepared ourselves for it."
Officials have sharply limited parking at MetLife Stadium, where Sunday's game will be played, and expect as many as 30,000 people to arrive by bus or rail. Security screening will start at train stations, where fans will not be able to board stadium-bound trains or buses without tickets to the game, officials said..............................>>>>.................................>>>>......................http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/01/29/us-nfl-superbowl-security-idUSBREA0S1TZ20140129

This is how free people live.
The irony will be when they roll out the football field sized American Flag and sing the Star-Spangled Banner before the game, as snipers sit above the spectators, panning the crowd for targets.
But...After 12 years in Afghanistan, we are told we are winning the "war on terror". This is what victory looks like.

Instead of singing The National Anthem they should sing America the Beautiful Paranoid.
