Whether you are going to the game or not, make sure to get your favorite NFL gear from the Chiefs, Eagles, or your favorite team at Fanatics!
Tip #1 - Plan for Traffic around Phoenix
It's no secret that the population of the Phoenix metro area has surged in recent years.? With surges in population, traffic has increased as well.? ?Even on the weekend, it's not unheard of to sit in traffic on I-10 outside of Phoenix Skyharbor International Airport or on AZ-101 next to State Farm Stadium.
Tip #2 - Golf Anyone?
Sure Phoenix is known for some of the best golf courses in the country, but did you know the Waste Management Phoenix Open is this week as well?? This PGA Tournament at TPC Scottsdale has been known to have the most foot traffic of any golf tournament in the country and the party-like atmosphere has a lot to do with it.? The actual tournament runs Thursday through Sunday, but come check out the celebrities playing with your favorite pros during the Pro-Am tournament on Wednesday.? Tickets for the Pro-Am run $50 and start at $100 for the tournament Thursday-Sunday.??
TPC Scottsdale is well spread out and parking options are plenty, so there's no reason not to go!
