On Location says those in attendance will “end your afternoon as part of the family”. Firstly, wannabe-wise guys (and gals) will start the tour at the sites of the famous opening credits sequence — you all know the song. This includes the exit of the Lincoln Tunnel and the famous Manhattan skyline.
What Next?
Next, the tour stops in New Jersey. Once there, it passes through The Muffler Man, Pizza Land, and the ramp of the Pulaski Skyway. After that, the tour hits some of the more iconic spots.
You will see places like; Barone Sanitation, Skyway Diner, and the infamous Bada Bing (Satin Dolls in Lodi, NJ).
TV buffs should not miss the opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of what went on behind the scenes of the show that broke all the conventional rules of television. On Location says the tour guides are actors who appear as stand-ins or extras on film sets, and will share little-known facts behind the scenes of locations visited throughout the tour.
At the end of the tour, the bus stops at Holsten’s. That’s where the infamous conclusion of the show was filmed! You will have the opportunity to sit in “Tony’s booth” with your friends and family for a nice photo-op.
The complementary onion rings aren’t bad either.
Those who would want to attend need to do so soon! Registration ends on January 9th. You can register here.
Who Will Play The Super Bowl Halftime Show In 2025?
The Super Bowl is not only the biggest event every year in the sporting world, but the Halftime Show is also the biggest entertainment event. Even though the Halftime show is under 15 minutes, it is talked about months in advance. And if the performance is successful, it’ll be talked about for years afterward. Only the biggest names in music have had the honor to grace the Super Bowl stage: Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Aerosmith, *NSYNC, Britney Spears, Janet Jackson, The Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, the Who, Prince, the Black Eyed Peas, Madonna, Beyonce, Shakira, Jennifer Lopez, Lady Gaga, Coldplay, Bruno Mars, Katy Perry and The Weeknd, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Mary J. Blige, Kendrick Lamar, Eminem and 50 Cent, Rihanna, and Usher.
Super Bowl LVII show took place in Glendale, Arizona’s State Farm Stadium, and featured Rihanna. Fans who were hotly anticipating new music were given another surprise by the “Diamonds” singer. Debuting her pregnant belly, the artist’s performance wasn’t as electrifying as anticipated due to her inability to do any crazy choreography. The show’s elevated stages and backup dancers tried to compensate for that. As with any pop artist, people online were criticizing her choice of wardrobe and debated on whether or not she was pregnant, as she waited until after the show to confirm it. Though this wasn’t the comeback we wanted from Rihanna, it was still great to watch her perform for the first time in years.

For Super Bowl LVIII, R&B superstar Usher shook the stage with a medley of his biggest hits. He brought along Alicia Keys, Ludacris, Lil Jon, H.E.R., will.i.am, and Jermaine Dupri for the halftime show. Back in April, he told Access Hollywood that he “would be a fool to say no” to headline the Super Bowl, a “bucket list” dream of his. Usher has sold over 23 million albums and 38 million digital songs in the United States. With over 80 million records sold worldwide, the “There Goes My Baby” singer is one of the best-selling music artists of all time. See who we predict will take the stage for Super Bowl LIX below:
