A Scots police chief has called for plans to host a Super Bowl party in an East Lothian pub to be thrown out after claiming the US sporting event is not 'special'.
The Mercat Grill, in Whitecraig, wants to stay open until 4am on the day of the Super Bowl so customers can watch it live and enjoy drinks at the same time.
However chief superintendent Catriona Paton has written to licensing bosses urging them to refuse permission for the late night get together.
