The Indiana Convention Center is part of a 3.4 million-square foot complex, highlighted this week by the NFL Experience.

"Just interacting with everybody, being able to toss a ball. I’m a female, never played football, cant even hold a football, so I’ve just really enjoyed being able to feel what its like to pass a ball,” said Tara Smith of Indianapolis.

Dave Schutkobske of Boone Grove, Ind., said it’s been a “wonderful experience, had fun watching the kids play football. Pop Warner is a big part of our lives here, and the kids have come out and enjoyed themselves a great deal."

Trey Buehler’s favorite part of the day was meeting some NFL celebrities.  

“Definitely meeting Von Miller,” Buehler described.  “He's like my favorite linebacker so it was really cool to meet him."

NBC25’s coverage of Super Bowl XLVI continues Sunday.
