Super Bowl 2013 is less than two months away! No Super Bowl is complete without beer. Bud Light, the official beer sponsor of the NFL, will be opening a Bud Light Hotel for the big game in New Orleans.

Bud Light will transform a 200-room hotel in downtown New Orleans into a complete Bud Light  paradise which will be a hotspot for football fans and partygoers. Bud Light staff will spend 3,000 hours installing custom drapes, lighting, furniture and other Bud Light themed items within the hotel. Even 550 hand towels, 250 pillows and 1,500 shampoos will contain the Bud Light Brand  in the specialized hotel from Thursday, January 31 through Sunday, February 3.

The excitement will begin on Jan. 31 with the EA SPORTSTM Madden Bowl. At this event, celebrities and NFL stars will battle it out on the latest edition of the Madden NFL video game. The winners get a trophy. Past winners include Drew Brees, Tim Tebow and Maurice Jones-Drew.
