Superbowl XLII - Patriots vs. Giants Big Day Events (VIDEO)

If you are lucky enough to have paid $50,000 for tickets to Superbowl XLII, you might see first-hand the New England Patriots break the 1972 Miami Dolphin’s record breaking season and Superbowl win over the Washington Redskins. In their quest to beat the NY Giants on Sunday, regardless of the outcome, the Patriots have still made history in 2008 by making it into the post-season with an unblemished record.

If you are in the Phoenix area, the Most Valuable Player (MVP) main event on Sunday will feature Hines Ward of the Pittsburgh Steelers and Ray Lewis of the Baltimore Ravens hosting the event after Super Bowl XLII to honor the game’s MVP.

If you plan to watch the game at home, check out Diana Raltray’s Super Bowl recipes at http://southernfood.about.com/cs/holidayrecipes/a/superbowl.htm, cook till you drop, and then sit back and enjoy the new commercials, such as this one with Justin Timberlake. Although I am still partial to last year’s winning commercial, the Budweiser (who else?) crabs that gathered on the beach to worship the holy cold ones.
