OK! is on the road again and heading down to Tampa, Florida for the 2009 Super Bowl XLIII where we’ll be partying with hundreds of A-list celebs and super star athletes who join forces for one mega hot weekend.

While the Arizona Cardinals and Pittsburgh Steelers battle it out for the Championship Title, the stars celebrate football's ultimate showdown in style. And although the economy has forced some past Super Bowl sponsors to pull out from throwing their famous celebratory bashes (Playboy and Victorias Secret to name a few) there will still be plenty of beer drinking, music making and party-hopping to go around!
