When you live in a city that hosts a Super Bowl there's extra cars on the road from those fans getting into town. And those fans typically don't know where they are going. There's extra police out and about. There's extra security. I went to the mall last week and I instantly noticed a difference. Similar to the difference I noticed in AZ at Scottsdale Fashion Square. So if I've noticed a difference last week I'm wondering what it will be like after the teams arrive and Super Bowl week truly gets under way which is tomorrow. With one of the teams staying in the area I'm hoping I'm not out and about when the team transport procession is going on. That will be one long procession of buses and police. I've been stuck in those long delays before back in AZ. Either for the ASU Football team, a visiting Fiesta Bowl team, or even the AZ Cardinals back when they played at Sun Devil Stadium.
This is kind of funny, I said to my boyfriend the other day that people out in stores and around seem grouchy. There just seemed to be grouchiness all around the other day when I was out. After I got done telling him this he simply stated, "It's because the Steelers are coming to town." Ha! Ha! I busted out laughing at that one.
Continuing with the anti-Steelers sentiment. I've seen many banners and marquees around welcoming the Packers and their fans to big D. I have yet to see one tiny sign welcoming Steelers or their fans.
I must say the stores sure have decorated things for the big game. When you walk down store aisles you might be walking on replica field turf or some sort of Super Bowl something. Archways and goalposts are at entrances or are marking special Super Bowl snack aisles. And Peyton Manning cutouts will greet you as you go down the soda aisle.
