Eagles Vs Chiefs: Super Bowl LVII Kicks Off #MUSEUMBOWL23
In 2023’s Super Bowl LVII it’s Philadelphia versus Kansas City on February 12.
Restaurants and businesses in both cities are getting in on the competition – including museums.
“Battle for the Masterpieces”
A “battle for the masterpieces” will also be at play, accompanied by a pigskin scramble on social media as two major art museums
Philadelphia Eagles
Sasha Suda, the George D. Widener Director and CEO of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, has wagered a master painting on the Birds’ success.
Kansas City Chiefs
Julián Zugazagoitia, Menefee D. and Mary Louise Blackwell CEO & Director of The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, has eagerly taken up the challenge on behalf of the Kansas City Chiefs.
In the bet, the winning city’s museum will receive the other’s painting on loan.
A Chiefs victory would bring a future delegation from the Philadelphia Museum of Art to the Nelson-Atkins, with a Philadelphia master work in hand.
An Eagles triumph would bring a future delegation from the Nelson-Atkins along with a master work to Philadelphia.
Sasha Suda stated:
“When the Eagles soar to victory…
“…we will warmly greet our friends from the Nelson-Atkins and treat them to unforgettable cheesesteaks here in Philadelphia. They have such a remarkable collection, and we will be thrilled to share a piece of it with our visitors, in a very special Point After Touchdown (PAT). We’ll make it feel right at home in our galleries and display it with Philly pride.”
Julián Zugazagoitia said:
“We expect to offer our Philadelphia friends something they’ll long remember after the…
Chiefs make short work of the Eagles.
Philadelphia’s museum has so many amazing works, and they will see how wonderful the PMA loan will appear in our beautiful galleries. We won’t let them leave, of course, before they can taste the best of our Kansas City barbeque.”
#MuseumBowl23 is on. Let the games begin.
