The Super Bowl, the biggest event of the year for
football fans. The Super Bowl is unlike any other event. All of America gathers
around their TVs and grabs some chips and sandwiches and drinks to sit down
with family and cheer on their team! And of course, enjoy the half time show
because that’s everyone’s favorite.
The Super Bowl this year will be played in New York on Sunday, February
2nd. This years Super Bowl will be played between the Denver Broncos
and the Seattle Seahawks. This should be a good match up.
There is always so much buzz surrounding the Super Bowl. Many think it
should be an American holiday? Which really most Americans already treat it
like a holiday. I think making it an official holiday wouldn’t change the way
we Americans feel about this huge event in sports every year.
How did the Super Bowl become such a big event for Americans? How do
things like this event of the Super Bowl every year for the last 48 years,
become apart of our American culture?
Those are questions we should ponder. This is because the Super Bowl
means more to us Americans then a championship football game. It means family,
friends, food, freedom, cheers, halftime shows, it’s just a way to celebrate
the good things in America that no other country has.
It’s just one of those things that makes America unique.
The Super Bowl is of course about the football game but it also includes
the entertainment of the half time show. This years entertainer is Bruno Mars.
I find this an interesting choice because he is a very popular performer however
for the standards of the Super Bowl, I’m not sure how they decided to choose
Bruno Mars. But on a positive note, I’m excited to see his performance. Last
year’s performer Beyonce was amazing. Many people bought tickets to the Super
Bowl just so they could see her half time show.
The other part of the Super Bowl that many Americans look forward to the
most is the commercials. The commercials are definitely a part of the American
culture that comes along with the Super Bowl.
This year the University of Iowa’s dental school will get to air their
commercial during the third quarter. Being from Iowa this is pretty big deal. The
commercial features students and staff from Iowa City Regina high school’s
football team. That would be pretty cool to be featured in a Super Bowl
commercial as a high school student or teacher from a school in Iowa.
A link to that commercial can be found here:
Enjoy the Super Bowl!
