Believe it or not, musicians are football fanatics too.

They threw bashes to show their love for the sport.

Maxim throws the hottest parties.  Cardi B. headlined their bash.

Remember, these parties are the warm-ups to the big game itself.

Them musicians are getting the celebrity football fans all riled up for the Super Bowl.


Playboy is old-school, therefore, the classic when it comes to throwing parties for what dudes want and desire.  The classic is back and it came to Minneapolis.

Snoop Dogg showed up because he's a football fanatic and a football little league when he's not rapping or cooking with Martha.

Talent Resources Sports, a full-service sports marketing and experiential events agency, joins forces with Playboy to present the annual Big Game Weekend Party. For one-night only, an exclusive Playboy event returns to football’s biggest weekend and will make its way to Minneapolis’ downtown district on Saturday, February 3, 2018 with a special set by DJ Snoopadelic aka Snoop Dogg who will be hosting the event.

Sometimes, you gotta eat humble pie and team up to throw a big ass bash.

That's what Rolling Stone Magazine did with music streaming service, Tidal.

Together, they threw a Migos concert for the Super Bowl.

During Super Bowl, they drop it like it's hot, which they need in freezing Minneapolis.

Rolling Stone Live: MINNEAPOLIS, with headlining performances by Grammy Award-nominated multi-platinum supergroup Migos and additional special guests to be announced.

To counteract all that hotness and balance it all out, there are women who work in the NFL behind the scenes.

Lululemon recognized and thanked them at LULULEMON'S "THE WOMEN OF FOOTBALL" event.  Lululemon thank these ladies who keep the league running.


Hosted by technical athletic apparel company lululemon, the event, themed "The Speakeasy", will feature signature cocktails, special guests, NFL Industry influencers, music by DJ Johnathan Ackerman and more. 
The 2018 event will highlight and honor women who are making a difference in the world of The National Football League (the NFL).  The party is set to take place in a warehouse environment located behind MartinPatrick3 at 212 3rd Avenue N in Minneapolis.  Invited VIP guests, both men and women, are summoned to celebrate the accomplishments of women in every corner of the football industry. 
From the front office to the field, the negotiation table to brand strategy, women are growing their presence in football and impact on professional football. This event salutes the many women who provide the support and guidance needed for NFL players to achieve success, as well as women who make the NFL what it is today - and are working to grow and improve it. The event was co-founded by Ashley Kerns of Kerns Marketing and Management and Kelli Masters of KMM Sports in 2015 with the purpose of bringing these women together.
"Women make incredibly important contributions to the professional football industry, and play such a critical role in the lives of NFL players," said Masters.  "These amazing individuals deserve to be celebrated!"
Along with featured guests and celebrities, marquee players from across the league will attend the event. lululemon's pop up in the back room of MartinPatrick3 in the North Loop is open through February 4. The space will be host to complimentary workouts, on-site product customization, and events throughout the week.
