I couldn't be more impressed with my home state of Minnesota. The entire Super Bowl week was pretty amazing.

Jay and I spent Saturday downtown Minneapolis at Super Bowl Live. From the security to the incredible volunteers to all of the very cool events, this was fantastic. And it was FREE to the public! The folks who put this all together deserve a huge thank you.

And of course, with Jay being a life-long Eagles fan, the game was pretty great too. Kudos to the talented Justin Timberlake on a heart-felt and fun half-time show. He really knew how to touch the Minnesota fans, from the Prince tribute to including the U of M Marching Band. Nice job.

There was no violence, no property destroyed, no fans throwing things. Maybe it was the cold weather. Maybe it was all the security. Or maybe a little bit of that "Minnesota Nice" rubbed off on everyone who came to town. Either way, we hope they'll all be back again one day. When the Vikings are in the Super Bowl.
