It was a Super Bowl to remember. I have been to about ten super bowls and this one stands out from all the rest as being what we call in the event world a ‘cluster-f–k’! Some things were due to Mother Nature, like the weather, but others were due to other factors. For me, besides a few things, nothing bothered me too much or maybe I am good at making lemons from lemonade!
I traveled on Tuesday to Dallas and was delayed in Charlotte for six hours, so I spent the time wisely and I got a manicure! See, I love being delayed in airports, cause it forces me to relax which I sometimes have trouble doing! Upon getting to Dallas, the airport was a ghost town, and the roads were a mess, but lucky for us no one was driving so there was no traffic! As we landed there was not another plane on sight!
The rest of the week was bitter cold and the roads were covered in ice and no snow plows to be seen or salt trucks around. Thank fully we were not one of the hundreds of cars to get in an accident. We did though make the most of the snow and made some beautiful snow angels. (see video on you tube ) That was all you could do outside, because you could not walk or go for a run, as the sidewalks were like ice rinks…a few of us took some nasty wipe outs! The parties and nightclubs were reporting a lack of attendees due to the snow and ice and that did put a damper on some people’s festivities. Again, not for us!
We attended a party at Hotel ZaZa, and a casino party called the Cowboy Gathering which was hosted by many of the X-Dallas Cowboys and was quite fun…until we came out to 5 inches of snow on our car! We also went to dinner at a wonderful restaurant and hot spot called Nick and Sams that same night.
Friday was the ESPN party in Fort Worth and Kid Rock was playing which was the highlight of the night. Again, my goal is to someday plan that party and make it much more fun and interactive! It needs work! Saturday was the Maxim Party which was a huge hit and then Sunday was Game Day!
The only problem on game day, no one knew where any seats were located and to get around the stadium you had to go to the 4th floor in order to walk to the other side as that is the only floor that you can walk the perimeter…there were a lot of mad people! We on the other hand found ourselves in a staircase and in the VIP section of the stadium… just by chance and no one paying attention to us…so we had a drink, ate some food… watched the national anthem and then proceeded to our seats in the 100 level… 8 rows up…and in the end where most the touchdowns were scored. So happy to see Packers win!!!!!!! Till next year in Indianapolis!
