Super Fun at State Fairgrounds

The Big Game may be taking place 15 minutes away from here, but the State Fairgrounds has been full of Super Bowl excitement this week.

It started early in the week with the transformation of the Pepsi Coliseum as the NFL prepared it for Thursday Night’s Pepsi Fan Jam headlined by B.o.B., Gym Class Heroes and the All American Rejects. Tonight’s show featuring Steven Tyler and Carrie Underwood is also sure to be a great time.

The commissioner’s party, the Maxim party and other events have also brought big name celebs to the fairgrounds, but nothing can top this morning’s presentation of the Bart Starr Award at the Super Bowl Breakfast in the Exposition Hall. More than 2,000 people turned out to see Washington Redskins linebacker London Fletcher receive the honor for his outstanding talents on the field and his faith-led civic involvement in real life.

Indianapolis will be remembered for a long time as a great Super Bowl host city, and the State Fairgrounds is proud to be playing a small role in that.
