The Super Bowl is currently one of the hottest and most expensive tickets, but that\u2019s not stopping three men in their 80s who have attended every game since the first AFL-NFL World Championship in 1967.\u00a0<\/span>The three friends, who meet up every year at the big game, are looking forward to this Sunday\u2019s matchup against the Los Angeles Rams and the Cincinnati Bengals for a number of reasons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Unfortunately, one of those reasons is it may be the last time they all gather at a stadium to watch a Super Bowl.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI still think I have a few years left. I\u2019m going to try to make it to 60. But old man age is catching up to all of us,\u201d Tom Henschel, 80, said<\/a>.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The exclusive \u201cNever Miss a Super Bowl Club\u201d began in 1967 during the first Super Bowl, which was called the AFL-NFL World Championship, Gregory Eaton secured tickets to the game from a friend at Michigan State.<\/span><\/p>\n

That friend, Herb Adderley, started for the Green Bay Packers that day.<\/span><\/p>\n

Eaton, now 82, traveled from his home in Michigan to Florida for the second World Championship game the following year, and he hasn\u2019t stopped going.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not even a cancer diagnosis or a pandemic could keep him from the Super Bowl.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI have prostate cancer \u2014 I had it once, and then it came back on me \u2014 and they found a spot on my right kidney that\u2019s cancerous,\u201d he said. \u201cThey want to go through my stomach and into my kidney to cut it out to save that kidney.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI told them, \u2018Whatever you do, it\u2019s not moving that fast, and I\u2019m not doing it until after the Super Bowl.\u2019 My sister is a doctor, and she looked at me like I\u2019m crazy,\u201d he said<\/a>.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In 1983, Henschel met Don Crisman, now 85 and the oldest in the trio.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cPeople have a tendency to think we\u2019ve all been together from the beginning,\u201d Crisman said. \u201cBut that\u2019s not the way it was.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Previously, there were five members. Stan Whitaker, who went to the first 42 games with Crisman stopped going in 2009 due to his declining health. He died in 2013 at the age of 91.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bob Cook, who attended 44 Super Bowls died shortly after Super Bowl XLV in 2011. Larry Jacobson, one of Crisman\u2019s best friends, also died in 2011 a week after the Super Bowl.<\/span><\/p>\n

It wasn\u2019t until February 2016 that the current members started hanging out.<\/span><\/p>\n

They became aware of Eaton after he was featured on a Detroit television station before Super Bowl 50.<\/span><\/p>\n

The three have never missed a chance to watch the game together.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although there was some worry last year when it was announced the crowd would be significantly reduced and it would include thousands of tickets for healthcare workers.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI was worried the streak would end,\u201d Eaton said. \u201cThen I got the call from the NFL on Jan. 17, my birthday. They said, \u2018Mr. Eaton, can we have your credit-card number?\u2019 The tickets came in the mail. They were $3,000 each. It\u2019s amazing how expensive it\u2019s gotten.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI look forward to it every year \u2014 and the relationships we\u2019ve had these past five years are unbelievable,\u201d Eaton said<\/a><\/strong><\/span> in 2021. \u201cWe\u2019re like a brotherhood.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

This year will be extra special because the trio of friends will be able to sit next to each other again \u2013 last year\u2019s restrictions prevented them from enjoying the game side-by-side.<\/span><\/p>\n

While their days of watching the Super Bowl together might be coming to an end, they\u2019re going to make sure they enjoy every last minute of it.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Super Bowl is currently one of the hottest and most expensive tickets, but that\u2019s not stopping three…\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3309,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-3308","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-community","8":"cs-entry","9":"cs-video-wrap"},"yoast_head":"\nFriends who attended every Super Bowl since 1967 plan final trip to the big game in 2022 -
