Football and Sandwiches

Super Bowl 43 (we refuse to use the pretentious Roman numerals) will feature two star players with lots of hair shooting out from the backs of their helmets (Larry Fitzgerald, Troy Polamalu), as well as performances by Jennifer Hudson, Faith Hill, and Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band. The big game coincides with the first anniversary of Crosstown Station (1522 McGee, 816-471-1522). To celebrate, the venue is reopening its kitchen. Get two-for-one sandwiches and $1.50 domestic draws as the Steelers and the Cardinals clash on a 180-inch theater screen. The game starts at 5:25 p.m. and will be called by Al Michaels and the vastly overrated John Madden.
