If you know anything about football, you know that a great game plan is key. We're not expecting you to draw up plays that might work for the Cardinals and the Steelers, but a little planning will help your Super Bowl weekend go a lot more smoothly. We've picked out a few spots for top-notch game viewing around town, as well as some of the best Super Bowl parties. Of course, you don't have to sit around and do nothing until kickoff at 6:28 p.m. on Sunday evening. There's plenty to keep you entertained until the big event.

Stats

300 Marietta Street - Atlanta

Have a taste for the finer things? Check out the Super Bowl at Stats. The downtown sports bar will be showing the game and offering two all-you-can-eat buffets. Upstairs, the appetizer buffet is $20, while the downstairs space will feature an entree buffet for $50. If you'd rather order off the menu, you can have anything from wings or cheese dip to a rack of ribs or a 10-ounce filet mignon. Admission to Stats is free, but you may want to make a reservation. The event starts at 4:30 p.m. 404-885-1472. www.statsatl.com.
