Their 'targeting' is presumably aimed at the workers who have little choice but the turn up if they want to keep their jobs. I don't think those splashing on tickets are doing so just because they're wealthy undocumented immigrants who only go because of a Latin halftime act.

"But then it's football". But this looks like the NFL saying "fuck MAGA, we'll have a very popular halftime act, and we don't care that he normally sings in Spanish". So yes, it's a good look.
