These gents have never missed a Super Bowl. And they hope to keep the streak going

As long as they still have each other, they're still going to go to every Super Bowl.

That's the sentiment shared by three friends who say they are the final fans who can claim membership in the exclusive "never missed a Super Bowl" club. And they're back again for number 58 — Super Bowl 58 — this year.

The three fans, all in their 80s, are Don Crisman of Maine, Gregory Eaton of Michigan and Tom Henschel, who splits time between Florida and Pennsylvania. The three are gathering this weekend in Las Vegas for the big game, and they're hoping they can all make it to the 60th edition of the game two years from now.

The fans have sat together at the Super Bowl before, and they were still trying to make last-minute arrangements to do that for this year's game this week. At the very least, they planned to get together for their annual pre-game brunch on Friday.

The Lions fell just short of qualifying for their first Super Bowl, but Eaton said getting together with Crisman, 87, and Henschel, 82, is the real draw of going to the big game year after year.

This year's game goes Sunday at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

Crisman and Henschel first met at the 1983 Super Bowl, but they didn't connect with Eaton until the mid-2010s.
