It’s the first NFL stadium to achieve this remarkable feat 23. ✅ Sustainable Practices: Recycling, composting, and efficient waste management ensure that the Super Bowl leaves a minimal ecological footprint. ✅ Carbon-Neutral Spectacle: Fans watching from home can rest easy knowing that this Super Bowl is powered by clean energy.

Could this star-studded event break viewership records? Let’s celebrate a Super Bowl that’s not only about touchdowns in the greenest sporting venue in the world, but also about touchdowns for our planet! #SustainableSuperBowl #AllegiantStadium #GreenEnergy #GameChanger #AzureforSports #taylorswift #GoGreen #SuperBowl #Microsoft #NFL #Football
