February is of course one of the biggest sporting months of the year – with the Super Bowl taking place!
We always head down to Vegas for the weekend and go to Blondies. Highly recommended – amazing atmosphere there and well worth the price. Staff are fantastic too and they have the game on everywhere including on the big screen.
Last years finale was particularly amazing as we were a group of Patriots fans, and a Seahawks fan came to our table to “watch the rest over here”. And then that interception happened and you’ve never seen anyone disappear so fast.
