New Orleans hosting SuperBowl LIX (2025)

[LadyStanley]

It seems like it's been relatively quiet, businesswise, about next week's game.

KC vs Philadelphia.

KC has announced if they win there will not be a public rally, but there will just be a parade (after last year's event that had a shooting, killing one and injuring dozens). And a celebration inside the stadium in advance of parade, shown on screens along parade route.

And now a security nightmare with potus planning to attend.

I kind of get it since security was already going to be crazy given the events of NYE. On top of the Super Bowl always having a massive law enforcement presence.

It's also been quiet because this is a repeat matchup from two years ago and certain... irregularities when it comes to the officiating in games involving the Chiefs.
