Per my daughter, there are two Kelsey (sp?) brothers and the only difference is one has "more of a dad bod." I already knew one of them is a Swiftie. I'm learning a ton about football. 🏈

Questions about Superbowl for non-sports person:

2. Is it typical for host city to outshine the whole game part? Looking good NOLA 😉
3. What's the official name of the Flyers green? It's stunning.
