Good morning and thanks for joining us. Here are some of today's top headlines. It's game time: After days of eating, drinking and celebrity sightings, game day is here. Keith Spera reflects on the city's knack for throwing a party. Also, check out these photos Sophia Germer took in the French Quarter Saturday night. Super Bowl stop: For roughly two centuries, the Old Absinthe House has been one of the most storied in the French Quarter. And when the Super Bowl is in town, many here for the game make their pilgrimage. Jeff Duncan has the story. One more time: You may have heard, but New Orleans held a Super Bowl parade on Saturday. If you happen to have missed it (or even if you didn't), you can watch it here. Thanks for reading. Check back throughout the day for more news, entertainment and sports from The Times-Picayune.
