DALLAS (AP) – NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell says in a taped deposition that the league was responsible for problems that left hundreds of fans without seats or with restricted views during the 2011 Super Bowl at Cowboys Stadium.
The Fort Worth Star-Telegram newspaper in Texas reports (http://bit.ly/1NhWMAs ) that Goodell’s videotaped testimony was heard Wednesday by a Dallas federal jury that will decide a lawsuit filed against the NFL by ticket holders who were displaced when seats weren’t properly installed for the game in Arlington.
Goodell said in the 2013 deposition that the NFL, not the Cowboys, was to blame. He says, ”it is our event. It is our responsibility to produce it in a positive way and make sure we deliver on our promise.”
The jury was to continue hearing the deposition Thursday.
