What do you have to lose?
Well, you are pretty close to NY, right?
But...What do you have to lose?
If its vacant, I say what the heck! In fact, advertise it as a Super Open House (remember you can't use Super Bowl as its a trademark of the NFL). Put up streamers, lots of balloons, maybe an inflatable man in the front yard to commerate the day. Just because its the largest televised sporting event doesn't mean everyone will watch it, right.
Personally, I've learned that during NASCAR season here, I don't hold an open on a race Sunday if I'm in the country. If I do, I have either the game or race on somewhere in the house on mute so that they stick around.

Time you could spend with your family or friends...
but then again, maybe you'll pick up some desperate housewives out to find a new abode while the hubbys drink beer and eat pretzels...lol
Open houses don't work well in my area. The only reason that I hold them from time to time is to keep a client happy. Although I'm not a SB fan, I don't hold opens on SB Sunday simply because few people go to opens out here, and there would be much less on SB Sunday.
SB Sunday ... good question... I don't know much about Toms River NJ where you are from but if you have snow you may want to do a winter themed hot chocolate and toasting marshmallows over the fire pit open house... Have it outside in the driveway? worked really well here in North Conway, NH this weekend on a new construction. 30 people over 2 days, which is a LOT for around here... plus you get to drink hot chocolate and toast marshmallows...
