Steelers safety's brother gets five years for attending Super Bowl

March 22, 2006

POMPANO BEACH, Fla. (AP) -- Now Tank Carter has even more time to think about how much he enjoyed that Super Bowl party.

A judge increased jail time from six months to five years for the brother of Pittsburgh Steelers safety Tyrone Carter because he failed to report to prison on time for driving with a revoked license.

Tank Carter went to the Super Bowl instead and said he had no regrets.

He was to report to a Broward County prison on Jan. 6, but decided against it when his brother told him the Steelers had a good chance of going to the Super Bowl.

"Even knowing what I know now, I would do it again. It was the greatest game in my life," said Carter, who watched the Steelers beat Seattle from the 50-yard line in Detroit on Feb. 5 and partied with rapper Snoop Dogg after the game.

Tyrone Carter said he would have done "the same thing" for his brother.

The two have been close since growing up in a rough section of Pompano Beach and winning the Super Bowl meant "we finally made it together," Tyrone said.

On Tuesday, Broward Circuit Judge Stanton S. Kaplan upped the jail time.

There's really nothing to say except that he is an idiot, if you have 4.5 years hanging over your head there is NOTHING big enough out there to risk that length of time.
