The Super Bowl Boulevard is coming to an end on Saturday at 10PM.  Don't miss out on all the festivities and fun events from 34th Street to 47th Street on Broadway.

I didn't get a chance to check out the area from 42nd to 47th Street, but you can get a close-up view of the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

Also, another great opportunity to note is that there are free autograph signings from noon to 5PM, from current and former NFL stars, while there are concerts starting at 8PM on Broadway between 39th and 40th Streets. That is a rare and great opportunity to get a handful of autographs of the NFL stars all in one place without leaving the city and for free.  Don't miss out!
