If you’re one of the thousands of people attending the 2016 Super Bowl on Sunday, Feb. 7 at Levi’s Stadium to watch the Carolina Panthers plays the Denver Broncos, then you can anticipate the lines and crowds. To help you navigate through the sea of people, sporting occasion has an app, called Super Bowl 50 Stadium, that will make navigating the Super Bowl simpler.
“The Super Bowl Stadium App is a must-have for any fan going to The Big Game,” reads the app description. “The app is sure to enrich every fan’s Super Bowl 50 experience starting long before kickoff until the last piece of confetti falls in Levi’s® Stadium.”
According to Mobile Sports Report, the app has been developed by VenueNext, an app developing company that previously made Levi’s Stadium app. In addition to the features already available in the Levi’s Stadium app, the new app offers new features like being able to send a friend food and drinks within the stadium and a Super Bowl fan guide add-on.
“Before the game, fans can use the app to explore transportation options and find out what’s going on at GameDay Fan Plaza Presented by SAP,” reads the app. “While at the game, fans can use the app to watch Super Bowl commercials, watch instant replays from four different camera angles and explore interactive stadium maps.”
While food delivery was initially a feature on the app, it was removed from the app. Attendees can still order in advance to save time and forgo lines.
“It was a risk-reward decision about the amount of fan education needed,” said Al Guido, San Francisco 49ers chief operating officer, about the decision to limit delivery to beverages. “There’s so much going on at a Super Bowl and so many people new to the stadium that it didn’t seem worth it to us to risk someone not getting an order delivered because of their error, or our error.” Guido added that with all the extra breaks in action for a Super Bowl, and additional concessions stands, “there’s enough time to get around” to get food.
