Superbowl - Colts vs Saints
About 106 million worldwide watched Super Bowl XLIII in its entirety, according to a report. The word "billion" is thrown out a lot come Super Bowl time. The audience and ads don’t always live up to the expectations though. It's certain that the National Football League wants more and thinks that more people watch the Super Bowl but last year’s Super Bowl didn’t get the best views compared to the past. But little do American’s know is that it's far from the most watched game in the world. Outside the U.S., Canada and Mexico, only a couple million people see the Super Bowl, and probably a lot of them are expatriate Americans. Soccer, tennis, and racing are among the most popular draws beyond North America. The NFL, however, has been making a push into Europe for years and has staged regular-season games in London since 2007. High Definition T.V. also is a factor in today’s society, because they are going down in price more and more people are buying HD T.V’s for big games like the Super Bowl. Expectation for this year’s Super Bowl will be one of the biggest ones ever according to be viewed and possibly a record breaker. The Colts and Saints are the number two teams this year and are both playing in the Super Bowl this year. This is the first time since 1993 that the two number one seed teams have been the Super Bowl. This is also the first time the Saint have gone to a Super Bowl. Statistics show that the Colts have the upper hand to the Saints. So if you got a HD T.V. and you’re not doing anything this Sunday, grab some friends, some chip and dip, and watch the most viewed game in America. Even if you don’t like football the commercials can be hysterical a lot of the time.
