I thought it was a joke also, sorry! I'm not usually into football, but this year the Super Bowl was a HUGE deal for us in Indianapolis, the city that hosted the event. It was a fun time!!0

And LOTS of beer.0

Is it some kind of eating competition? I'm guessing from the name that it involves very large quantities of food?
I think a lot of us forget that not everyone on this site is from the United States. Here is a link that might help http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl0 -
Super Bowl is when 2 football teams that have played through out the season and have won the playoffs play against each other. This year was the NY Giants and New England Patriots, It's a day where everyone pigs out on wings, heros,pizza, and all other types of crappy but delicious foods, and you drink lots of beer. Big deal for us Americans. At half time, some well known artist, in this case Madonna, performs. After the halftime performance the game continues until a team wins.0

It's an event where non-achievers gather and worship those engaged in a sport they could never dream of playing well.
People with little going on in their life escape their misery and self-loathing by watching others succeed, pretending the success of their chosen team is connected somehow to their lowly existence.
Go Giants!
Anyway, my life has meaning for another year....0 -
So does nobody actually know what it is? I've just seen lots of posts by people saying how it effected their dieting recently? It must be a fairly big food event.

I think OP is kidding, that seems like a British sense of humour to me :laugh:0 -
IIt is the championship game for the National Football League. It is an American tradition, although we Canadians do enjoy it as well. Typically it involves a million hours of pre-pre game, pre-game, game and post game commentary, interwoven with a billion dollars worth of commercials that focus on (in no particular order) cars, beer, subs, tortilla chips and websites. And part way through the game there is a mini concert. This year it was Madonna proving that she can still lipsync but not dance!!!!
Hope this helps (and by the way, the New York Giants won and left Tom Brady and his celeb-status in the dust!!!)
