Football fans and kids of all ages are channeling their inner Peyton Manning at Super Bowl Boulevard in
Times Square. The event kicked off on Wednesday and runs for four days leading up to
Super Bowl Sunday, and invites locals and NYC visitors to perform their own touchdown dances, carry a football through an obstacle course and kick a field goal through NFL goal posts. The All-Star attraction: a 180-foot-long
toboggan slide right in the heart of Broadway. What do toboggans have to do with football? We don't know and we don't care. They’re just fun.
