Less than three miles from the home of the Philadelphia Eagles is a Kansas City Chiefs bar that will be rooting for the Eagles to lose Super Bowl 57.
But reservations for Super Bowl Sunday were in the hundreds – far above the indoor capacity – and Big Charlie's was turning away regulars. That didn't sit right with Staico.
Although Staico felt the Chiefs and Eagles were the league's top two teams and envisioned the matchup on a collision course months ago, the choice is one of the toughest he's made in his life, he said. Big Charlie's utility player Laura Sessa – the manager who bartends, bookkeeps and body-guards occasionally – never thought the Eagles and Chiefs would actually meet in the Super Bowl.
"It’s going to be pretty big," said Puggi, who has been working at the bar for 31 years."We’re going to take it like every other game, even though it’s the Super Bowl." "Big Charlie’s, I think, holds a special place for everyone who walks in here – whether it’s one time or a thousand times, because they feel like they’ve been here forever," Sessa said. "We make people feel that comfortable and they all say it’s an experience."
