With Super Bowl Sunday days away, fans are ready to watch their favorite teams go for the win. Some fans say it’s the experience and camaraderie that makes the day worthwhile.
“It’s fun to watch though, it’s always nice to see two big teams go at it,” said Isaiah Smith, a local sports fan.
As fans kickback to watch the game, sports bars in the valley come out as the real winners with beer and food specials.
“The NFL is huge for us. Our Sundays are really packed and [during] the super bowl, theres never a seat left,” said Saul Chavez, owner of The Block Sports Bar and Grill.
