The stage is set for Super Bowl LVIII on Feb. 11, 2024, as the Kansas City Chiefs will take on the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

The Super Bowl season means millions will be attending — and maybe even hosting — watch parties for the NFL game of the year. 

Actor Matthew McConaughey is even getting in on the Super Bowl hype by releasing a margarita recipe to celebrate the special occasion: The Super Pants Margarita.
