Well its a lot of money but the thing you must remember is its only 16 weekends out of the year. 15 with the bye weekend. Plus most games are on Sunday so he will fly out on Sat and depending on the game time, fly back right after the game. So i mean its just like a weekend job with a huge ass paycheck
He's national distro for 2 huge Orthropedic companies the rest of the year

Yes my uncle likes me )
He's an awesome guy too. He actually was the one they brought on board a few years back after Adelphia had to file for bankrupcy. They hired him our of retirement just to get the company back on thier feet which is exactly what he did )

my grandma used to work for Gary U.S. Steele and recorded some saxophone tracks on some hit albums back in like the 70s, I don't know which they were but my Dad does. That's what my Dad tells me...
My dad's an inspector for the city of LA, my mom doesn't work. My one sister works at Burger King, the other one works doing secretarial work for her friend's dad. I work at Vons as a bagging technician.
and one of my uncles owned most of Burbank (or at least the apartments) but his mom took the realty company away from him which sucks, but his family is rich and they live in a freaking mansion.
and another of my uncles does the lighting on most of the movies you see, and has autographs of all sorts of famous actors/actresses; he makes bank.
that's about it.

My father owned a company that built sewing machines and was considered, at one time, the most famous sewing machine mechanic in the world. He went to China and taught them how to build sewing machines, as well.
However, his shop was destroyed in Beirut because of the bombings...
