What Super Bowl? In Miami, it’s all about the Bad Bunny parties
In most corners of the country, Sunday is all about the Super Bowl. People want to know where the watch parties are, what to eat, which places have the best drink deals.
In Miami?
We’re more excited about that halftime show with Bad Bunny. And so are the bars and restaurants throwing parties that revolve around the Puerto Rican performer.
Many fans have even dubbed this year’s Super Bowl as the “Benito Bowl,” referring to Bad Bunny’s nickname.
Who’s playing in the Super Bowl again?
Bad Bunny, of course. So, here are some Miami-area bars and restaurants throwing parties inspired by the six-time Grammy winner and Latin dance music champion:
