Poll: South Jersey's Thoughts on a New Jersey Super Bowl

The Super Bowl is Sunday night and it's in New Jersey, but does it feel that way to southern New Jersey residents.

The Super Bowl has finally come to a cold weather state, and it's our very own state! Or is it?

The NFL's championship game will be played Sunday night at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford. Much has been made of New Jersey's struggle to claim ownership of the event over New York.

Even if New Jersey is recognized as the host state, does the southern portion get any credit for the event?

Is Super Bowl XLVIII an event the whole state can claim ownership of? Or is this an event the northern portion of the state, or even New York, has claimed for its own?

And if you have tickets to the game and you'd like to share your experience or photos, email anthony.bellano@patch.com.
