Visa also conducted surveys in seventeen metropolitan areas around the country and found a wide disparity among cities in their residents' plans to hold a Super Bowl party and how much they will spend on those events.

Washington, D.C. (71%), Pittsburgh, PA (70%) and San Antonio, TX (70%) topped the list of areas with the highest number of respondents saying they will host Super Bowl parties, while San Francisco, CA (58%), New York City (57%) and the state of Vermont (52%) represent areas of the country with the fewest number of respondents holding a celebration.
