Super Bowl,
which will take place this year on February 13, is an American cult classic. Every year,
tailgaters and football fans pack the stadiums to watch their favorite teams
play in the Super Bowl. They also gather with fellow tailgaters at local bars
and lounges if they're unable to travel. Make this year's Super Bowl
incomparable by visiting these five bars and restaurants in New Orleans.
Wherever you celebrate, remember to drink responsibly, don't drink and drive,
and always have a designated driver.
Also known
as the original Irish Channel bar, Tracey's is the one of the best bars in the
city. It's also one of the best spots to eat a roast beef po-boy, drink a cold
glass of beer, and watch the Super Bowl. Given its Irish roots, the bar turns
green for St. Patrick's Day. Be sure to visit for green beer on Thursday, March
17. If you've never been to Tracey's, add it to your bucket list. You won't
regret it! 2604 Magazine St., 504-897-5413, traceysnola.com

plenty of history. A product of the Prohibition Act and the Great Depression,
