Imagine being in Phoenix and having nothing to do but wait for the Super Bowl. Well, the NFL made sure that did not happen.  It’s called the NFL Experience. And it is an interactive them park located in the heart of downtown Phoenix.

Patriots fan Aaron Schmidt thought the experience was great.

“My son and I are here.  We’ve played games, threw the ball, kicked the ball.  We’ve seen just about every booth, got our picture on Madden’s games.  We’re having a great time.”

Seahawks fan Riley McIrving agreed.

“It’s great.  I really like seeing the trophies and the stuff that you only see on TV.  Players that you only see on TV are here.  Its really cool seeing them get in touch with their fans.”

The excitement was clear to another Seahawks fan Shane Sikorski.

“It’s great.  Great for the kids, great for the fans, it’s great to be a Seahawks fan nowadays.

Fans like Seahawks’ supporter Renee Christensen also have the chance to see the ultimate NFL prize.

“Took a picture with the Lombardi my team’s taking home.”

As much as fans are trying to enjoy themselves at the NFL Experience, the focus remains on the big game.

And there are many predictions from each side like Riley McIrving

“Seattle absolutely.  I’m going to say 35-17” and New England fan Aaron Schmidt who said “Patriots all the way… (score).  Oh gosh no, I’m just going to say Patriots.”

But Renee Christensen held firm, predicting “We got the Super-Bowl bound Seahawks..back-to-back…gonna be champions…take home that Lombardi.”

While fans wait for that Lombardi Trophy, they are able to spend many hours each day at the park.  It will close its doors for good just before kickoff
