This is a live article. Last updated at 12:36 p.m. on January 31, 2020.
Aloha shirts made an appearance during Super Bowl week when the Kansas City Chiefs stepped off the plane in Miami, Florida. At least eight of the players sported the same red and white aloha shirts as a nod to their head coach Andy Reid—a man who is rarely ever spotted in any other style of top. But Hawai‘i shoutouts aside, the Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers go head-to-head in a battle of red, white and gold (it will be the first time opposing teams are slightly matchy-matchy) at Super Bowl LIV this Sunday, Feb. 2 at 1:45 p.m. (HST). A few other firsts are coming up this Sunday including 49ers offensive assistant Katie Sowers becoming the first female and first openly gay person to coach a Super Bowl team, and the first time I will really pay attention to the TV screen—in between the commericials and halftime performance—thanks to ex-Patriots backup QB Jimmy Garoppolo.
So for all of those who know more about the actual game taking place on Super Bowl Sunday, here are the best bars and restaurants offering specials for Super Bowl LIV on O‘ahu. Keep checking back throughout the week as I’ll be adding new listings every day.
