And in case you didn't know, Indy is hosting Super Bowl 46 Sunday Night.
This is SUCH a big deal for all us here in Indy. Our city has been literally preparing for this weekend for years.
Todd and I had a chance to go downtown a few days ago and check out all the sights and SuperBowl village.
To say the energy downtown is electric is an understatement. People literally dancing in the streets (with bellmen).
Right in front of the Monument (and the XLVI letters) you will see 33 Indy cars lined up, each representing a team in the NFL. These were so neat to see and obviously very representative of Indianapolis.
This one's for you Lori and Amie. ;)
We saw store fronts being transformed into party locations, and the celebrities are trickling in each day. Oh and Jimmy Fallon's show is being taped here as well.
We walked Georgia Street for a bit and then headed to Sushi on the Rocks for dinner (so yum).
As for the big game? All I can say is a Manning better win in Indy :)
I am so proud of my city. So proud of all the work that went into being the Super Bowl host city. So proud that the world will be watching Indy on Sunday night!!

How very cool! And I'm a huge saints fan so I was thrilled to see the saints car! Enjoy the excitement!
Fun! I was watching the the Today show this morning and thought of you! Have a fun weekend!
This is awesome that you can experience this. The SUPERBOWL is the same age as I. Not a fan of either team, but GO GIANTS!
I just showed my son your photos. Love the indy cars painted as the teams. So fun!
Oh how fun for your city and for you to be able to enjoy it!! I know a number of people heading there for the big game. Go Pats ! I'm in a mixed family - my other half is from NY ;) Always interesting when Bos and NY competing!!
that sounds like lots of fun Jenni! It's like having an amusement park go up in your back yard overnight.
