One of the great moments from last year's Super Bowl experience was the massive sendoff and fan turnout for the team buses departing for the game in NY/NJ. Has anybody heard anything about a departure time / route for this year? Hopefully another wonderful scene.

last year it was Sunday Jan 24, the week before the game which was Feb 2nd. If they are on the same plan, I would think it would be this Sunday.
I do know to leave for it a little bit earlier this year because traffic as you got close was a standstill. We got their on time, but we were nervous we were going to miss it. It was a blast.
