Super Bowl

The Super Bowl is a special American football game played every year at the end of the National Football League (NFL) season. It is the third biggest annual sporting event on the planet.

Super Bowl Sunday is the day that the two winning teams from the play-offs play in the Super Bowl, the game that determines the champion of the season. 

It is a very special event for most football fans, but lots of people who do not like football still watch it for the spots and the half-time show. In 2014 it became the most-watched American TV show in history with an audience approximately of 112 million viewers.

There are two reasons why Super Bowl Sunday is very popular, and they have nothing to do with the sport! Of the 80 million people who watch the game, many of them watch only the Super Bowl, and not the rest of the season. Why do they watch? 

Many people have Super Bowl parties, where friends unite to watch the game, eat, drink, and enjoy each other’s company.

           

One reason has to do with the entertainment. A football game is split into two parts, or halves, separated by halftime. This break between the halves usually has a halftime show. The show often consists of the team’s cheerleaders, who try to get others excited about the game, and a marching band, a musical group associated with the team that marches as they play. On Super Bowl Sunday, the halftime show is a much larger show, with famous singers, dancers, and performers, and draws the attention of many non-football fans watching the Super Bowl. A great example is J..Lo and Shakira's amazing show.

The second reason people love to watch the Super Bowl is the commercials. The commercials during the breaks in the game are some of the best commercials of the year. Advertisers pay up to $3,000,000 for a 30 second advertisement – millions of people watch the Super Bowl, so they can reach a large audience. The ads are very funny, and they are made so that people will remember them for days, weeks, or years to come.

Americans eat more food on Super Bowl game day than on any other day of the year except Thanksgiving and it is usually fast food and all kinds of snacks.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are the team with the most Super Bowl Wins with six victories. 

The Dallas Cowboys and San Francisco 49ers currently are compiting for the second-most Super Bowl wins with five.
