Oh believe me, I get the joke. I just about coughed something up at it. Let's just say I put it on the bad end of the joke-telling scale.

A FREE trip to Hawaii. And get paid to go. I'll take that anytime.

I believe they get the same money as a regular playoff game, hotel and not one but two first class plane tickets. Pretty good deal.

While I agree with you, the Pro Bowl Coaches get comparable considerations (okay, it doesn't affect their pay directly), but I don't get the sense that they want to be at the game. I don't think a Pro Bowl assignment for a referee is on par with any playoff assignment from the standpoint of prestige.
