You don't have to spend too much time around Ocean County to have seen the massive, gold Cadillac covered in homemade signs prowling the streets.

The teams are set, the stadium is being prepped, and fans are making their last minute travel plans.

As the calendar changes to 2014, New Jersey has a huge event to look forward to in less than a month. The eyes of the world will be on The Garden State for football's biggest game.

Some New Jersey lawmakers are busy preparing for the day they expect casino gambling to expand to the Meadowlands.

We're about 200 days away from a Super Bowl at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, but the nearby megamall project remains at a standstill.

New Jersey officials are planning to learn any lessons possible from the investigation into the deadly Boston Marathon bombing, in advance of hosting the largest sporting in event in the world.

In January of 2014 New Jersey will host the Super Bowl. The game will be played at Met Life Stadium in the Meadowlands. Garden State business leaders think having the Super Bowl will help the state economically and could also bolster New Jersey's reputation around the country. Right now, the state's reputation is iffy at best.

For the past several months the mega-entertainment extravaganza project in the Meadowlands called American Dream, which used to be known as Xanadu, has been financially stalled. But now there's word it could soon be revived.

If there's one thing we know here in Ocean County and New Jersey, it's malls. Throughout my life in The Garden State I've lived in about half a dozen different towns and I have never been more than half an hour from a mall. And the most amazing part, they're almost all busy.
