as the title says, me and my girl went downtown to check out the superbowl stuff going on and i figured i would give my thoughts on it. first off, it was alot of fun with out spending a ton of money. i think all together i spent $25 which ill break down for yall. parking $6 in the lot next to the city county building (other places closer to the superbowl village was $20-35), sodas for me and the girl at $3 each, and then we got a pretzel at a street vendor for $4 with cheese. all and all we did it fairly cheap since we didnt do any drinking or other of the expensive stuff. there is alcohol, soda, food, etc for sale EVERYWHERE so what ever your in the mood for, its available. along georgia street, there are propane/natural gas heaters all over the place and indoor areas to warm up so you dont freeze!
for the familys, there is A TON of kids stuff to do. had football throwing targets, 100 yard dash, string golf, corn hole, and lots more stuff to check out. lots of clean restrooms with the heat pumping which was nice for my lady. there were indy cars decorated with each of the NFL teams logos and such, concert with bret michales, and of corse the zipline which was sold out... if you want to do the zipline, tickets go on sale at 11am each day and the wait is roughly 2 hours from what the employees said.
^ numerals at the circle which has a light show every 15 mins or so
^^ above two pics are of the zipline by the convention center
^ free concert stage by conseco fieldhouse
^ice sculptures along georgia st. very cool to see in person!!
^fireworks by zipline, shot from top of convention center at 915pm
^^ indy cars with the nfl decals
^me and the girl at the cirlce (please no smart a$$ comments)
so thats my report, i will add if i think of anything else that i may have misses. last note, i OC the entire 3 hours downt there and got several looks but not once did any of the 300+ LEOs downtown say a word to me!!
check it out if your looking for a few hours of reasonable entertainment!!
