Some blind fans to experience Super Bowl with tactile device that tracks ball

I gotta say, this is awesome 🤩! The NFL finally stepping up to make football more inclusive for blind and low-vision folks? That's like, game-changing (pun intended). I mean, think about it, they're literally giving these fans a new way to experience the game without having to rely on others. It's like they're saying, "Hey, you can still feel the excitement of football even if you can't see it."

And let's be real, who needs to watch the game when you can feel the vibrate of the ball and hear what's happening? Sounds like a party to me! The fact that Ticketmaster is footing the bill for free is just icing on the cake 🎂. This whole initiative is like, totally on point. OneCourt should be like, totally proud of themselves 💪.
 
🤔 this initiative is defo a win-win! blind fans get to experience the super bowl in a whole new way 💥 it's so cool that scott thornhill can finally feel like he's part of the game again 😊 and the nfl/nfl teams really stepping up their accessibility game 👏 gotta give props to onecourt for making this tech happen 💻 they're already planning to expand it to other sports leagues too 🤝 makes me think about how we can make our daily lives more inclusive and accessible for everyone 🔓
 
The NFL's partnership with tech firm OneCourt is a game-changer 🤩 for blind and low-vision fans! I mean, can you imagine being able to feel the location of the ball and hear what's happening in real-time? It's like having your own personal coach or play-by-play announcer, but instead of relying on others to describe the action, you're actually experiencing it yourself.

I love how they've used data from cameras and chips embedded in balls, jerseys, and other objects on the field to create this technology. It's like science fiction come to life! And the fact that Ticketmaster is footing the bill for fans to try it out for free is just amazing 🙌.

This initiative is not only about giving blind and low-vision fans a better experience, but also about promoting inclusivity and accessibility in sports. The NFL is setting a great example here, and I'm excited to see OneCourt expand its services beyond football and make this technology available globally.

It's also wonderful to hear from Scott Thornhill, who's getting back a sense of excitement and engagement in his life through this device. As someone who grew up playing sports before losing their vision, it's clear how much of an impact this can have on people's lives.

Overall, I think this is a huge win for the NFL and OneCourt, and a testament to the power of innovation and collaboration 🤝. Let's hope we see more initiatives like this in the future!
 
🏈💡 I think it's so awesome that the NFL is finally making an effort to include blind and low-vision fans in the Super Bowl experience. It's about time! 🙌 The technology they're using is so cool, it's like having a personal commentary team in your ears and vibrations on your skin. I'm sure Scott Thornhill, who got to try it out, is totally stoked to be able to feel what's happening on the field again. It's amazing that Ticketmaster is covering the cost of this tech for fans too! 🎟️ The NFL is really stepping up their game when it comes to accessibility. Fingers crossed they can expand this to other sports and games soon!
 
🤔 I think this is a bit overkill, you know? Like, what's next? Providing wheelchairs for people who can walk? 😂 Just kidding, sort of. But seriously, I'm glad they're trying to make the game more inclusive, but we don't need special devices to do that. Can't we just... use our ears and imagination or something? 🎧 It's all about the experience, right? But hey, if it makes a difference for Scott Thornhill and the other blind fans, then more power to them, I guess. 💪
