San Diego’s Super Bowl Party Breakdown

Author: Sandi Beach, February 6th, 2010

Super Bowl XLIV Cutting Board

Super Bowl XLIV is this Sunday, February 7th. None of your friends picked up the torch and announced a party at their place. You know you don’t want twenty friends letting loose in your own living room. So why don’t you leave the chili cheese dip in the jar, skip the pigs-in-a-blanket, and treat yourself to a full-service experience?

These fine San Diego establishments invite you to join them, with as many of your closest friends you can coax onto public transit or cram into a designated driver’s chariot.  With kick-off happening just before 3:30 pm, most are beginning the festivities around noon.  Get your rest, you’ll need it for this full-contact day of fun!

Farmers Insurance has stepped up to the tee box as new title sponsor, giving us the Farmers Insurance Open 2010. With current economic conditions, sponsorships aren’t viable for many businesses, including members of the struggling auto industry.  After twenty years of sponsorship, Buick announced last year that they could not return in 2010 for the 4th stop on the PGA Tour at Torrey Pines.

“It was only within the last few weeks that this ultra-prestigious tournament found a title sponsor…”
