From everyone i listened to on TV and radio and the few people that were attended this weekend, all said it was an overall great experience. Security was alittle extreme but you had to expect that considering the recent events.

My only complaint about the super bowl was the crappy score graphics they had at the bottom of the screen. The thing kelp flickering and moving and blurring out, etc the entire game and it was very annoying

As for the national Jazz anthem, I’m ok with it. It was in New Orleans, the home of Jazz so it gave it a local touch. I thought it was beautiful

I hated the halftime show, although I though KL kept it somewhat clean and ok, he was just a terrible pick for the Super Bowl

Tom Brady - I thought he was great

New Orleans as the city looked phenomenal on TV

Overall, I give it an A

I haven't watched NFL since 2010 and from what I've seen, they're worse than when they walked away from me. Grade: F.

I haven't been to NOLA in about 15 years and I was getting followed around by young gang bangers in the Quarter who clearly had nefarious intentions. From what I've heard and seen, NOLA is also worse. Even back then it took two weeks before the smell of piss finally left my nose. Grade: F.

A+
NOLA should get the Super Bowl every other year.
Give kudos to the cities that waste $1-2 Billion for overpriced taxpayer welfare to the billionaires every other year.
No better place to host a Super Bowl and National Championship than NOLA.

From everything I saw and heard the city looked great and sounded great. The pre game was good and at half time I went to garage and played a few songs. Seems I made a good choice lol
Give it A.

Well, I’m no rap aficionado, but he has a song where he straight up calls Drake a pedophile, although I think he avoided using that specific direct language in the show.

The crowd chanted “a minor”, which alludes to Drake’s alleged fondness for the underaged. Kendrick also wore a necklace with an “a” on it, which apparently alludes to the same thing.

As an added bonus, Drake’s ex Serena Williams was brought in to dance along to the song.

Ouch.

Hosting and pre-game, NOLA did well. I think it would have been cool to have St. Aug join Southern for the pre-game show instead of HC Jr and his schlock. I do not like HC Jr. His accent when he talked at the beginning was awful. He must have used Gayle Benson’s dialect coach. Grade: A-.

As for the game, I didn’t really care. I know Mahomes & his wife are down with the cause, but I’m over the Chiefs. A team won, no one died on the field, so it was a successful game. Grade: C

Halftime, I left the sound on because I figured I would surely have heard some of his songs somewhere if he was popular enough to play the SB. Negatory. I should have turned the sound off. I liked the red, white, and blue sweat suits the back-up dancers were in, but that wasn’t enough to save it for me. Grade: F-
