INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - It's a warm souvenir for an army of Super Bowl volunteers.

Organizers of the big game are giving blue-and-white Super Scarves to each of the 8,000 volunteers. The idea is to keep them warm in chilly Indy and make them highly visible during Super Bowl week.

The scarves are six feet long and were knitted by everyone from great-grandmothers to prison inmates.

The New York Giants and the New England Patriots will play in Indianapolis on Sunday, Feb. 5.
