As Super Bowl LIX nears, Americans are getting ready to root for the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, with some traveling to “The Big Easy.”
The championship game will take place at New Orleans’ Caesars Superdome with a capacity of 83,000 spectators, according to Reuters.
More than 25 hotels are fully booked from Saturday Feb. 8, to Monday, Feb. 10, according to Hotels.com search results — and even budget-friendly stays are costing Chiefs and Eagles fans a pretty penny.
