INDIANAPOLIS (WOOD) - It is not too late.

You can still make it to Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis, if you're ready to shell out a pretty penny for the big game.

Got tickets?

There are still plenty of seats at Lucas Oil Stadium still available on websites including Stubhub.com. For nosebleed sections, prepare to spend about $2,000.

If you want to watch the New England Patriots and New York Giants in style, there is a field suite available for $445,000.

Got a hotel?

If you think you can grab a last-minute, inexpensive place to stay, think again. 24 Hour News 8 searched Expedia.com Friday morning and found a hotel, located about a half hour away from downtown with vacancy still available, for $375 a night.

Craigslist.com has listings where people are renting out their homes for visitors. These prices range from $800 to $5,000.

If you want to avoid the overnight stay option, you can make a day road trip out of it. It takes about five hours to get to Indianapolis from Grand Rapids. It will cost you about $75 to fill the average vehicle gas tank.

If you are going to the game, 24 Hour News 8 wants you to share your experience with us through ReportIt -- send us your pictures and videos of what you are doing in Indianapolis.

If you are staying home to watch the Super Bowl, WOOD TV8 is the place to be --  

-- Noon to 1 p.m. -- "Road to the Super Bowl" -- an NFL Films production

-- 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. -- "Super Bowl XLVI Pregame Show"

-- 6 p.m. -- Game coverage begins

-- 6:30 p.m. -- Kickoff
