NOT a Super Bowl Party event provides an alternative to the big game this Sunday

The 2020 Super Bowl will be happening this Sunday as the Kansas City Chiefs take on the San Francisco 49ers, but not everyone will be watching.

For those looking to find something to do Sunday that does not include watching football, Silver Tee Golf and Virtual Gaming Centre will be hosting its annual “NOT” A Superbowl Party.  The focus of the event will be on friends and families and their golf game or spending time playing other virtual games or sports.

For the first time in more than 11 years, the Super Bowl last year was viewed by only 98.2 million people. People across the world are constantly looking for different ways to entertain themselves during this major event, with things such as the commercials and halftime show as a distraction from the game.

Theresa Lecours is the owner of Silver Tee Golf, and describes how she came up with this event as a way for people less interested in the game to still have fun.

“We’ll have the game up on the TVs with no sound and music in the background,” said Lecours. “They don’t have to watch the game at all, they don’t have to look at the TVs, we can put it on golf.”

Lecours also described the other things people can do when going to Silver Tee’s virtual gaming centre.

“Our games and sports simulators play all kinds of games including golf, of course, football, hockey, soccer, baseball, zombie dodgeball, we have carnival games, it’s regular price all day long, $49 an hour. You can have up to 8 people playing, starting at 5 o’clock they go down to half price.”

The event will take place Sun. Feb. 2, and will be from 5 p.m. until midnight. All golf, games and sports simulators will be half price. If interested, call 519-966-4911 to make a reservation.
