Super Bowl in the United States
Day:
The Super Bowl is typically held on the first Sunday in February. It marks the championship game of the National Football League (NFL) and determines the league's annual champion.
History:
The first Super Bowl was played on January 15, 1967.
It originated from a merger agreement between the NFL and its then-rival league, the American Football League (AFL).
The two leagues' champions faced each other in what was originally called the AFL-NFL World Championship Game.
The term "Super Bowl" was coined by Lamar Hunt, owner of the Kansas City Chiefs, reportedly inspired by his children's toy, the Super Ball.
The Green Bay Packers won the first two games that retroactively became known as Super Bowls I and II.
Traditions:
Halftime Show: A significant feature with high-profile musical performances by top artists. It has become as much a cultural spectacle as the game itself.
Commercials: Some of the most expensive TV advertising spots of the year, with companies often creating special commercials for the event.
Parties: Many Americans host or attend parties to watch the game. These gatherings often feature football-themed decorations and games.
Food: Tailgating foods such as wings, pizza, dips, and nachos are popular. The Super Bowl is second only to Thanksgiving in terms of food consumption in America.
What People Do:
Across the nation, fans wear their team’s colors or jerseys.
People congregate at homes or bars to watch the game together on big-screen televisions.
In addition to watching football, viewers eagerly anticipate halftime performances and new commercial debuts.
Some fans engage in sports betting or participate in office pools based on various aspects of the game (outcomes, scores, etc.).
Cities around America have local events celebrating their teams if they are playing in the Super Bowl.
