I know you were a bartender...are you still? If so, that could be a horrible, horrible week. |

Go Tebow!

So it going to be impossible to find a place to watch the IU game against Purdue on Saturday night? We have tickets for the NFL Fan Experience on Saturday at 2 and we were hoping to watch the game after that... |

Manager/bartender. Its been crazy already with preparing, and even though I don't work downtown, we are expecting the whole city to be pretty crazy. People were getting hotels in Cinncy. It'll be profitable no doubt, and it'll be good for the city. Its just going to be mass chaos IMO. Roads everywhere are going to be busy nearly all day, and its going to be impossible to find any room downtown. They are talking about charging $100 to just park your car downtown. I believe you went UIndy, so you know how low key the city normally is. |

Hahaha, probably so. Lots of waiting, and things will be very pricey. I really hope you already have a place to stay. |

I realized I will definitely cheer for the Giants, since they did me the favor of beating the 15-1 Packers. At least Rogers still has that cute insurance commercial to fall back on... |

Throw on top of that you'll have New Yorkers and Bostonians coming in.....have to think you're not looking at the most hospitable home town fans coming in. Huge rivalry with the whole Red Sox/Yankees complex and you have the Johny-come-lately Patriots fans who think that the NFL started in the year 2001 or so. Have to say that people coming from San Fran and Baltimore would be less arrogant. Could be off in the assessment...let us know. |

Well, Baltimore fans are still upset over us stealing their team in the middle of the night. Not sure many of them would have wanted to come except to dump on our city. San Fran fans would have been an interesting take, big fan base from the 80s and 90s, plenty of money, but that's a long trip to a cold city. Many will still probably to come cheer on Victor Cruz (just kidding Obat!!!). Financially, the two best teams won the conference title games. Huge populations, plenty of $, and they are cold weather people. I'm sure I'll run into plenty of jackwads from both teams. It'll definitely be a unique experience. It should be profitable for the city, which should pay dividends in the long run for residents, but its going to be crazy busy and really get in the way of a lot of people's ability to go about their every day lives. |

I think the city can handle it. Should be a good time for all. |

Go Tebow!
|
I have a friend that goes to IUPUI and we're staying there, so we're good on that. We just plan on walking downtown and living it up. Not worried about the price of things, but I'm hoping the lines aren't too ridiculous. We were thinking about going to Buffalo Wild Wings downtown for the game. Any idea how long we'd have to wait to get it? |

Obviously you don't, but they don't take reservations even on a weekend like this, right? Surely if we were there an hour before the game, we'd be ok...at least that's what I'm hoping. |

I'm not sure of the layout of Lucas Oil and what they'll actually do, but here's a quote from Yahoo Sports.

I'd plan on a good wait. Prolly an hour-ish. That place would be packed for a Purdue-Indiana game regardless of the Super Bowl. |

The tourists and travelers will enjoy it. Not sure about the residents of the city. We aren't used to this kinda thing, that's why we live in Indianapolis |
