Feb. 12 is Super Bowl Sunday.

This is the time when football enthusiasts gather around televisions to watch the final playoff championship game of the National Football League and see which team will win the championship and the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

This year, is extra special for residents of Philadelphia and the surrounding suburbs as the Philadelphia Eagles are playing the Kansas City Chiefs at State Farm Stadium in Arizona.

Super Bowl LVII is sure to be an interesting game with a lot of first for the history books.

The Kelce brothers - Jason with the Eagles and Travis with the Chiefs - will become the first two brothers to face off against each other in Super Bowl history.

This will also be the first time two black starting quarterbacks - Patrick Mahomes with the Chiefs and Jalen Hurts with the Eagles - play in the same Super Bowl.

In addition, legendary Coach Andy Reid, coach of the Kansas City Chiefs, will be facing his former team, the Eagles.

While there may be several firsts this year, the day all comes down to which team will win, the Eagles or the Chiefs.

According to sportingnews.com, “Four of Sporting News six experts are picking the Eagles to defeat the Chiefs.

“Kansas City opened as a slim 1.5-point favorite to beat Philadelphia, but that line quickly shifted in favor of the Eagles, which were 2-point favorites as of Jan. 31.”

Super Bowl Sunday is not only about the game, but the pregame, halftime show, commercials, food and gathering with family and friends.

What are you looking forward to seeing this Sunday, the game, the half-time perform by Rihanna, the commercials or being with family and friends?

Whether you are an Eagles or Chiefs’ fan, enjoy this coming Super Bowl Sunday.
