Super Bowl 43: Expat Americans Celebrate
American Expats throughout the world gathered today to celebrate what is often deemed as America’s biggest holiday: Super Bowl.

French Quarter crowds, beefed up by tourists in town for Carnival season and by those wanting to experience the euphoria of a Saints victory, poured onto Bourbon Street to celebrate in a scene that looked more like Fat Tuesday than a Sunday night. The Saints won 31-17 in the franchise’s first appearance in the big game.”
