Across the outdoor bar, Charlie Weber, 52, who served in the Navy from 1988-2012, and his friends were spending the afternoon in a similar way — though, they said, XFINITY Live! was never part of their plans. Weber and some of his friends had traveled from New York with tickets for the game in hand, but gave up on getting inside the stadium after waiting more than 90 minutes in line. The veteran who said he served in Kuwait from 2005 to 2006 said he and his friends planned to try to get inside the stadium for the second half.
