  "textContent": "## It's Superbowl \"Monday!\"\n\nThe Super Bowl airs live on Monday morning in Japan. Kickoff is around 8:30am, right when most people are supposed to be commuting or already at their desks. Watching it live takes planning, coffee, and a place that’s actually open.\n\nIn Nagoya, that place is **Shooters Sports Bar and Grill**.\n\nOnce a year, Shooters opens its doors early for the Super Bowl and shows the full broadcast, live. **Doors open at 7:30am** , giving people time to arrive, order drinks, and get settled before kickoff. By the time the game starts, people are settled in, talking, eating, and watching the screens.\n\nThis isn’t a pop-up event or a one-off promotion. Shooters does this _**every year,**_ and regulars plan around it. Jerseys show up early. Coffee and soft drinks start and uh... _a few beers._.. start moving immediately. Plates get filled from the breakfast buffet and refilled again as the game stretches on.\n\n> What's more this year's broadcast features a head-to-head **Chili Cook-Off** battle between **Chris Z** and his team during the game!\n\nEntry to the live viewing includes an all-you-can-eat breakfast buffet that runs throughout the game, along with an open soft drink bar. Beer and cocktails are available for an additional charge. Some people take the morning off and treat it as a full-on **EVENT**. Others fit the game into their regular workday and just want a reliable place to sit and watch without rushing.\n\nBy 8am, people have found their spots. The crowd is mixed: long-term residents, visiting expats, local NFL fans, and people who learned years ago that trying to stream the Super Bowl at work isn’t worth the effort. Conversation picks up and drops depending on what’s happening on screen. People move between the buffet and the bar. This is a Nagoya _tradition._\n\nThis is why the event fills up every year.\n\n****Pre-Game Notes:****\n\nThe game will be a rematch of Super Bowl XLIX, in which the Patriots defeated the Seahawks 28–24. No players have remained on either team since that Super Bowl, with McDaniels being the only coach to appear in both games. Seahawks general manager John Schneider is the first NFL general manager to reach multiple Super Bowls with a different roster and head coach.\n\nThis is the first Super Bowl since Super Bowl XXXVIII to feature two teams that missed the playoffs the previous season. It was also the most unlikely Super Bowl matchup in at least 50 years based on preseason odds, with Seattle 60–1 to win the Super Bowl and New England 80–1.\n****(Source: Wikipedia)****\n\nThis is the first Super Bowl since Super Bowl XXXVIII to feature two teams that missed the playoffs the previous season.\n\n## Standing Room Only!\n\n_As we write this,**seated tickets for the live broadcast are sold out** , with **limited standing room only** still available. _\n\nThat’s typical. Super Bowl morning at Shooters is popular, and reservations are always recommended. Being part of a crowd is part of the fun—even without a seat!\n\nFor others, Monday morning simply isn’t feasible. Shooters accounts for this as well. So for those who can’t make the early start, the bar will be showing a **full-game replay later the same day** , beginning in the early evening. There’s no cover charge for the replay—just come in, order food and drinks, and watch the entire game without the alarm clock. (Just avoid spoilers!)\n\nThe two options reflect how people feel about the tradition. Some are willing to rearrange their Monday to watch the game live. Others prefer to wait until after work and watch it properly, with a drink in hand and no rush to be anywhere else.\n\nEither way, when the Super Bowl rolls around in Nagoya, Shooters is where people end up. Sometimes seated, sometimes standing, sometimes just happy to watch with a group of fervent fans.\n\nShooters' Super Bowl Watch Party Mon, Feb. 9, 2026\n\n## **The Details**\n\n**Shooters' Super Bowl\nWatch Party\n\nVenue:**\nShooters Sports Bar and Grill\n\n**Date:**\nMon, Feb. 9, 2026\n\n**Times:**\nDoors open 7:30am\nKickoff approx. 8:30am\n\n**Price:**\n¥4,000 + tax (live viewing)\n\n**Includes:**\n• All-you-can-eat breakfast buffet (during the game)\n• Soft drink bar\n• Beer & cocktails available for an additional charge\n\n**Monday Evening Replay\nTime:**\nFrom 18:00\n\n**Price:**\nNo cover charge\n(Food & drinks ordered separately)\n\n**Shooters Sports Bar and Grill**\nPola Building 2F\nSakae 2-9-26\nNaka-ku, Nagoya\n\n**Reservations / Enquiries:**\n**Tel:** (052) 202-7077\n\n## Access\n\n**By Subway / Train:**\nFushimi Station (Higashiyama Line **H09** / Tsurumai Line **T07**), **Exit 5**.\nAbout a 2–3 minute walk south along Fushimi-dōri.\n\n### **Nagoya Subway Map**\n\n**Check out our handy guide to using the Nagoya Subway**\n\n## MAP\n\n****What else is going on in Nagoya?****\n\nNagoya Buzz publishes weekly guides to events, exhibitions, food, and the small local things that make living here easier (__and occasionally stranger.__)\n\n→ ****See what’s happening in Nagoya this week****!",
