Jimmy Buffett Preps for Super Bowl

Indianapolis Colts battle it out for the NFL’s title at the Super Bowl, though most people’s seats won’t be as good as those of some of country’s biggest stars. Jimmy Buffett, Kenny Chesney and Rascal Flatts guitarist Joe Don Rooney will be in the house at Miami’s Sun Life Stadium — as will Carrie Underwood, who sings the national anthem.

• Jimmy has a unique connection to it all. During the regular season, Sun Life Stadium bore the name of his beer, Land Shark Stadium, and as a part of that sponsorship deal, Jimmy agreed to perform Saturday at an NFL Super Bowl party in Miami. Making his home in Key West, he’s a Dolphins fan, but he’s even more attached to the Saints. Born and raised on the Gulf Coast, he attended the team’s very first game in 1967, and like many fans, he plodded through decades of bad teams. More than 40 years after their debut, he’s understandably caught up in the fever surrounding the game. “When you say ‘the Saints are in the Super Bowl,’ you’ve got to go enjoy that,” he told The New Orleans Picayne-Times. Referencing Mardi Gras, he added, “I’ll be there with beads on.”
