Super Bowl XLVII is now less than a week away, the San Francisco 49ers are in town, and the Baltimore Ravens will arrive on Monday night. Tuesday's Media Day officially kicks off Super Bowl Week in New Orleans.
Despite its name, Media Day is a ticketed event for people without media credentials. The gates will open at the Super Dome in Louisiana at 8:30 am on Tuesday.
The first interview session of the day features the 49ers players and coaches from 10-11 am, with the team photo happening for the following half hour.
At 11:15 am, the New Orleans Saints will have a limited window for autograph signings, giving fans one last opportunity to see "Dem Saints" for the final time at home before the post-season's last game on Sunday.
The Ravens' on-field interviews will be conducted between 12:15 and 1:15 pm, with the team picture coming in the half hour after the interviews.
The Media Day festivities end at 1:45 pm.
The NFL Network will have coverage of the day beginning at 10 am.
You can watch the live stream of Super Bowl XLVII Media Day at NFL.com.
Super Bowl Week continues on Wednesday with many events, some officially recognized by the league and others more under-the-radar. In past seasons, some players' actions have gotten them in trouble before the big game. Others have made their presence known at post-game parties, including New England Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski, who danced shirtless after last year's Super Bowl XLVI loss to the New York Giants.
