Actually, no, mate!

I know Americans are notorious for their ignorance of basic geography, but you’d expect there to be some exceptions. Like the people involved in American football. But no. They keep saying “See you in New York” when talking about the coming Super Bowl, even though it will be played at the stadium shared by the Giants and the Jets . . . in New Jersey. Which means that anyone who turns up in New York expecting his freebies on Super Bowl Sunday will be sadly disappointed as well as baffled.
