There are a lot of big questions entering Sunday’s Super Bowl LVIII contest in Las Vegas featuring the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Fransico 49ers (6:30 p.m. ET on CBS and Nickelodeon).
Will Kansas City’s Patrick Mahomes become only the fifth quarterback to win his third Super Bowl? Will Usher be the best halftime show ever? And most importantly, will we get a postgame confetti kiss between Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift!?
The one question you shouldn’t have is where to watch the game in Asheville. Below is a list of great local spots to watch all the action, eat some great food and let someone else do the cooking!
