Estimated 400,000 people expected in region; team practices to be held in Florham Park and Media Day in Newark
The 2014 Super Bowl at MetLife Stadium is expected to have a $550 million economic impact on New Jersey and New York, with an estimated 400,000 people in the region, according to a report on dailyrecord.com. Businesses should start preparing for the flood of visitors now, according to speakers at The Big Game Huddle, an informational and networking event held Wednesday at Raritan Valley Country Club. “Start the celebration now,” said Wayne Hasenbalg, president and chief executive officer of the New Jersey Sports and Exposition Authority. “You don’t have to wait until the week before the game," he told the dailyrecord.com. That impact will be felt in North and Central Jersey, as one of the competing teams will practice at the Atlantic …

Patch wants to know your thoughts on this year's big game.
The National Football League season comes to its official close for the 2012-13 season with what many call the biggest day of the yearSuper Bowl Sunday. The contest features the Purple Birds of Mobtown, aka, the Baltimore Ravens (home team of the editor) taking on the stallions of the Golden Gate City, the San Francisco 49ers. Oddsmakers give the edge to the Bay Area team. As of late Friday, bettors were giving the 49ers a 3.5 point advantage. While many are focusing on the rivalry between brothers John and Jim Harbaugh, the respective head coaches for Baltimore and San Francisco, others are giving attention to the controversy over retiring Raven Ray Lewis, who's been accused of using performance enhancing drugs. Will that become a …

For the nation's biggest party of the year, there is no need to spend it alone if you don't want to.
Sunday is almost here! In New Orleans, the Baltimore Ravens take on the San Francisco 49ers for all the football marbles in Super Bowl XVLII. But the party extends well beyond N'Awlins. If you're wondering where to catch the game and hang out with neighbors, here is a list of area spots offering gridiron action, beverages and community.
Officials say the goal is zero deaths this weekend.
Just in time for Super Bowl weekend, traffic safety, law enforcement and alcohol control officials are urging New Jerseyans to be responsible during and after the big game festivities on Sunday. Attorney General Jeffrey S. Chiesa said that people should under no circumstances get behind the wheel if they’ve been drinking. Instead, they should plan ahead. “Many fans will be attending parties at friends’ homes, bars and local restaurants,” Chiesa said. “If your Super Bowl celebration includes alcohol, plan ahead and make sure you have a designated driver. Just taking that simple action will ensure you won’t be putting your life, or the lives of other motorists, in danger.” Chiesa said the dangers on Sunday are akin to those on New Year’s Eve…

The debate continues.
It's an argument that's been boiling over since 1976–or, at least since the Giants started winning Super Bowls. Where to hold the victory parade? The Canyon of Heroes, as is the traditional place a New York-based sporting team takes its victory lap (the G-Men are set to walk down at 11 a.m. Tuesday), or in New Jersey, where the newly-crowned Super Bowl champion team has actually been located for 36 years? It's hotly-debated, so much so Gov. Chris Christie has been calling them the "New Jersey" Giants. What do you think? Should it be exclusively in New Jersey? New York? Or, can football fans from both sides of the border agree that the Giants are both states' teams? Chime in below.

When you're watching the Super Bowl on Sunday night, the team that calls the Meadowlands home won't be the only New Jersey export on display. What is it? Here's a hint: It takes numerous skilled craftspeople and about four months to complete, and millions of people will have their eyes glued to it on Sunday. And it's made nearby—right here in New Jersey in Parsippany. The Vince Lombardi Trophy that will be passed around by either the New York (we know it's really New Jersey) Giants or New England Patriots after winning the game's most important contest was produced in Morris County, crafted in the Tiffany & Co. workshop. So, while you feel Jersey pride watching Big Blue's tough defense and Eli Manning-led offense, you will know that they …

It takes numerous skilled craftspeople and about four months to complete, and millions of people will have their eyes glued to it on Sunday. And it's made nearby—right here in Parsippany. The Vince Lombardi Trophy that will be passed around by either the Pittsburgh Steelers or Green Bay after winning the Super Bowl on Sunday was produced in Morris County, crafted in the Tiffany & Co. workshop at 15 Sylvan Way. Most people know the trophy was named after legendary Packers head coach Vince Lombardi, regarded by many as the greatest football coach of all time. However, the trophy didn't get that name until 1970, three years after it was created and handed out. The trophy was originally designed by Tiffany for the first Super Bowl in 1967, …

Alan Veingrad explains transformation from an NFL player to devoting his life to Judaism.
For seven years, Alan Veingrad made his living by pushing around some of the most physically intimidating defensive lineman in the National Football League. At age 47, Veingrad, who now goes by his Jewish name Shlomo, meaning "God’s Peace," no longer studies the tendencies of his opponents across the line of scrimmage each week, but rather, he studies the religion of Judaism with the same intensity and vigor that made him a Super Bowl champion. Veingrad explained his transformation to an audience of about 70 people at the Knoll Country Club East in Parsippany last Sunday. Rather than donning a helmet and shoulder pads while playing in front of 75,000 people, Veingrad now sports a long gray beard and yarmulke, working as a transformational …
