The road ends in Silicon Valley. Super Bowl LX is set, and it is a heavyweight matchup as the Seattle Seahawks take on the New England Patriots on football’s biggest stage. The game will be played in Santa Clara, California, under the lights at Levi’s Stadium, where legacy, pride, and another Lombardi Trophy are all on the line. Expect a packed house, national attention, and a game built for big moments as two franchises with championship history collide for NFL supremacy.
Downtown Kickoff at 49th State Brewing
If your idea of Super Bowl Sunday includes sound on, wings flying, and a downtown buzz, 49th State Brewing on 3rd and G is your opening kickoff. Doors open early at 11 a.m., giving fans plenty of time to lock in a seat before kickoff.
This is classic game day done right. Forty nine cent boneless wings. Half price starters and bar snacks. Cold Alaska Star Lager flowing freely. And if you are playing the long game, the Pigskin Edition Bloody Mary with honey pepper applewood bacon is a power move. Bring your crew, settle in, and ride it all the way to the final whistle.
Chili, Chaos, and Competition at Homestead Lounge
Eagle River brings the heat at Homestead Lounge with a Super Bowl party that doubles as a full blown chili cook off. Starting at noon, this is where football meets friendly rivalry.
Bring your best chili and put it up against the competition for a cash prize and serious bragging rights. Expect trash talk, big screens, door prizes including a TV, flowing drinks, games, and enough energy to rival the halftime show. Whether you are all about football, food, or just the chaos of a packed local hangout, Homestead is the place to plant your flag.
Tailgate Vibes at The Whale’s Tail
For a more polished take on Super Bowl Sunday, The Whale’s Tail at The Hotel Captain Cook delivers a classic tailgate experience with a buffet that reads like a championship lineup. Starting at noon and running through 6 p.m., fans can catch the game on the big screen while working their way through an all star spread.
Think all-beef hot dogs, house made chili, classic wings, loaded tortilla chips with all the toppings, and mini Super Bowl cupcakes to seal the win. The buffet is $20, the drinks are flowing, and the atmosphere is built for cheering. This event is 21 plus only, and food service is limited to the buffet, so come hungry and ready to commit.
No matter how you watch, February 8 is about good food, loud cheers, and finding your people for the biggest game of the year. Pick your spot, wear your colors, and let Super Bowl Sunday do the rest. 🏈
