Students from the University of Charleston will have the chance of a lifetime, all while lending a helping hand.
21 students will be working behind the scenes and doing some volunteer work at this Sunday's Superbowl.
They will be working on several events including the NFL experience, DIRECTV Celebrity Beach Bowl and NFL On Location.
Two of the students who are going say they're really excited and can't believe they're going to be a part of such an experience.
"We're just lucky that Dr. Welch, our president gave us this opportunity and supports our program and gave us the opporunity to go down and do this," said UC Senior, Holly Sabatake.
"It honestly will be a huge experience just to see how many sponors there will be at the game and just see how many things have to be on time, how long it takes, the duration and all that different stuff will be pretty neat to see," said UC Senior, Mary Beth Romine.
The students were selected through the sports administration to go to the big game in New Orleans.
