Super Bowl Day

Cyndi had to work the first time we went down to Super Bowl village and was bummed when her other plans to go fell through, so we all agreed to go downtown on Super Bowl Sunday to experience the fun!!
My dad was quite a trooper and offered to drive us downtown and pick us up later in the day so we didn't have to deal with parking!  Once Cara realized she could spend the day inside playing with Grandpa instead of walking around in the cold  she dumped us!
The roman numerals were a little less busy on Sunday morning than during our previous visit

The line for tickets for Jimmy Fallons live show that night was crazy!  We would have loved to see his show in person but enjoyed it just as much from the comfort of our home
A little starbucks to warm us up on this chilly morning

They had just finished filming on WISH TV when we were in the huddle
Ice sculpture

Loved all the signs on all the buildings
Completely surrounding Lucas Oil they had placed fencing and barricades for security reasons.  This was the closest we could get on game day
We stood in the crowd for a while when they were filming on ESPN, the camera kept panning the crowd but not sure if you could ever see our faces!
We wanted to do a little celebrity stalking at the Conrad, so we to the wine tasting restaurant in the corner of the Conrad and enjoyed some cheese, fruit, wine and water (my drink of choice for the day :)
Ran into some members of LMFAO in the lobby of the Conrad, also saw Lenny Kravitz whole band load up to head to a pregame concert
So proud of our city and the great job they did transforming us into a legitimate Super Bowl town!
What a fun day.  Once the crowds were picking up we knew it was time to head home to rest up so we could enjoy the big game later that day!!
