Using the whole 100' x 29' board for one video feed would suck being that it doesn't fit the 16:9 aspect ratio. That would cause everyone to look nearly twice as fat.

Not if you could focus the canvas of the video board within a larger 16x9 video.

Pan and scan? Yuck.

I had to do that with the video boards we used with HD On The Go video trucks at the World Cup. I created a scoreboard in Photoshop (used Smart Objects to update the scores) to fit the board's 7:2 ratio perfectly and sent that feed letterboxed to the truck in a regular the 16:9 ratio. From there, the video was panned to fit board perfectly with the letterboxed margins eliminated. We used the Photoshop scoreboard in the background and superimposed a 16:9 live feed on top of it to give this effect (video truck's screen is on the left):

Instead of replying to everyone in the ticket exchange that are looking for tickets, get out to the Dome tomorrow early and scour around. I've always been able to find an extra one or two, just gotta be out there trying and be in the right place at the right time. The tailgate lot is a good place to start, then head to the ticket lobby on the east side as kickoff approaches and see what you come up with.

Yep. Just poke your head into a few tailgate setups, share a beer or two with great fans and ask if they know anybody with a spare ticket. Chances are you'll be set by 3:00
