100-inch uber Superbowl screen on a budget



Paul writes -
Last year around superbowl time, I posted an article showing how my roommate and I had built a stadium seating setup for our living room. This year, we went one step further and added a 2500 lumen projector to the mix to create the ultimate home theater system on a budget...100-inch uber Superbowl screen on a budget - Link.

Yes, that looks like a nice safe way for your friends to stumble around when over watching the superbowl. Can you say AFLAC? Get that hot projector closer to the futon matress while you're at it, Hmmm, is my butt getting warm?

Sounds to me like CRS has sand in his crack.
This setup is awesome, and while I'm sure there are better ways to mount the projector, running it in that setup for just one football game isn't going to hurt anyone.
As far as inebriated friends trying to climb down from the upper tier? Just tell them they're the Exclusive Box Seats for the designated drivers only. ;)

ha i just heard it was illegal to have more then a 60 inch screen to watch the superbowl on and you can not have a superbowl party to do with the commercials and stuff like that.
