We are only one day away from crowning the Super Bowl LVIII Champions. The Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers will go head-to-head tomorrow night in Las Vegas to determine the best team in the NFL. While the NFL World will be buzzing this Sunday because of the Super Bowl, next weekend will be all about the NBA. The 2024 NBA All-Star Weekend will commence next Friday in Indianapolis, and it is going to be a star-studded event.
Scheduled just 5 days after the Super Bowl, the NBA All-Star Weekend might turn into the Post Super Bowl Party. Several NFL legends, including Peyton Manning, Pat McAfee, and Jason Kelce, might show up at the event to have some fun.
The first night of the All-Star Weekend will be highlighted by the Ruffles All-Star Celebrity Game at the Lucas Oil Stadium. One of the two teams will be managed by NFL legend Shannon Sharpe.
