Sure, you could follow the herd to a sports bar this weekend. Or you could head to one of these unexpected places, where you’ll find plenty of TVs, snacks and, in some cases, strippers.
Inside the cushy confines of the Paragon Grove, you’ll be able to watch XLV on a 25-foot screen. (And you thought B.J. Raji seemed big on your 50-inch plasma.) Forty bucks gets you two drinks and unlimited upscale comfort food like Prosciutto Flatbreads and Kobe Sliders.
We won’t say this is where your girlfriend would like to watch the game, but we won’t deny it either. Instead of wings and beer, think foie gras and pinots in this cavernous shop/lounge, where you can see Roethlisberger and Rodgers shoot it out via a 10-foot projector and $10 bottles of house reds.
If barbecue and unlimited beer sounds good to you, consider Smoke’t. They’ll have 10 flat-screens tuned to Packers-Steelers, $5 pulled pork and sloppy joe sandwiches, and all-you-can-drink light beer for $20. Which, coupled with a Green Bay win, is like Cheesehead heaven.
Problem: you’re entertaining friends at your place, and you want something a little nicer than a Costco platter. Solution: home delivery by Sol Kitchen, run by two chefs from the Trump resort. They’ll drop off a four-course feast, including shrimp rolls, smoked mahi tacos and wings marinated in pastrami brine.
Or you could always take in the action from the same place where Diddy watched the game last year. Spread out with your crew in one of 14 skyboxes equipped with flat-screens, or at a table near the main stage, where no fewer than 70 dancers will provide additional super-ness.
