This footage is totally insane. It will also make you question everything you know about Super Bowl security - and big event security in general. Two Savannah State students didn't only have the stones to try to sneak into the Super Bowl to catch Beyonce's halftime show, they decided it was a good idea to videotape what happened. The above clip shows how they pulled it off.
Getting into America's biggest sporting event of the year without any credentials looks way easier than you'd imagine. After some introductory clips from the local news talking about how tight security is and a couple of build up scenes of the duo driving to the game, the guys get to the outer edge of security around the 2:30 mark. From there, it's totally ridiculous how easily these guys infiltrate the Super Dome. The pair's most effective moves involve no more than simply asking security to open doors and move barricades for them. At one point, one of them even questions out loud how they haven't been stopped yet.
Apparently, there's more footage and the two guys plan on releasing a full-length documentary on their experience.

There seems to be some editing going on and never really did see how they got up into the seating area. I was a professional gate grasher. When the Super Bowl was in New Orleans when the 49er but Denver 55-10 (I think that was 1990?) I snuck into the LOCKER ROOM, and have pictures to prove it. I am holding the Super Bowl trophy with Roger Craig, the 49ers star running back at the time. When the Super Bowl was in Phoenix (where the Arizona Cardinals played before their new stadium) I snuck into the Super Bowl. I've gate crashed dozens of high profile events. These 2 guys were amatuers at best and something just was not right about that video.

There seems to be some editing going on and it was never really clear how they got into the stadium and into the seating area where they could see the show. Second of all, I was a professional gatecrasher and when the Super Bowl was in New Orleans when SF beat Denver 55-10 (I forgot the Super Bowl number but I want to say it was 1990), I snuck into the locker room for the SF celebration and have pictures to prove it including me with the Super Bowl Trophy and Roger Craig the 49ers star running back at the time. I also snuck into the Super Bowl when it was in Phoenix. I've ben in Worls Series winner's locker rooms, etc. I've gate crashed dozens of high profile events. Was not impressed with those 2 guys.

But I guess that they like many others out there feel entitled to get whatever they can for nothing. Payback can be worse. Maybe when you get older and start accumulating material items and someone happens to take them. I wonder how loud you will scream. Then think of how lousy your security must have been. As these boys have proven. If someone wants to do something bad enough they can. Let's all just try being more honest.
