A 35-year-old Tempe man, Kurt William Havelock, lost his bid to get a liquor license from the Tempe City Council. So, he planned on taking an assault rifle to the nearby Super Bowl and plugging 200 rounds into the fans! He even wrote a manifesto!
Security was very tight getting into the game, but the parking lots had a few traffic cops and some people waving orange batons to direct traffic. Without a change of heart at the last minute, my Super Bowl experience and the experience of many others may have been very very different.
