Sean McVay is busy preparing for his second Super Bowl appearance in the last four years, arguably the biggest game of his life. He doesn’t have time for questions about free tickets to the Rams-Bengals showdown on Feb. 13.
While talking to the media on Thursday, McVay shared a funny line about ticket requests, which he got a taste of three years ago in Super Bowl LVI. He said anyone who asks for tickets to the big game won’t be getting any – implying that those who are getting tickets from the coach already know who they are.
Sean McVay on the distractions of Super Bowl week: "I told my fiancee that if I have to answer a question about tickets, then that person is not getting any."

The Rams are playing Super Bowl LVI at home, so the ticket requests would figure to be larger than normal. It’s only the second time a team has played in the Super Bowl at its home stadium, coincidentally coming in back-to-back years after the Bucs did the same last season.
Super Bowl LIII had a hometown feel for McVay, too, as it was played in Atlanta. McVay attended high school in Brookhaven, Ga., a suburb of Atlanta.
If he thought he got a lot of ticket requests for that game three years ago, the number this time around is likely to be significantly higher.
