It’s not every day or even decade that the BIGGEST sporting and TV event comes to your area, but the South Bay Area got lucky with this year’s NFL champtionship game, Super Bowl LX. And while nothing can compare to actually attending the game at the gorgeous Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, the unparalleled energy throughout the South Bay will make any watch party pop. The massive outdoor Big Game Tailgate Party transforms Santana Row into the ultimate pre-game destination just minutes away from the actual stadium. And there are other watch parties to choose from in the area. Go team!
