This Sunday is not just any given Sunday: with Super Bowl XLVII coming up, more than 100 million people will get together to party, eat and drink while watching Jim and John Harbaugh duel on the sidelines.
From the visitors packing host-city New Orleans, to the multi-million dollar halftime show, to people pouring onto the roads after a night of drinking at events all across the country, Super Bowl Sunday is indeed a national holiday, but one that must be enjoyed responsibly from the stadium to the house parties.
Super Bowl risk management starts at the scene, say Chris Rogers, director of risk control, and Lori Shaw, sports and leisure practice leader for Aon Risk Solutions. With a capacity of 76,468, the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in the Big Easy must be closely monitored to ensure the safety of spectators, fans, vendors and the facility.
