Superbowl Media Coverage

The Superbowl is an American tradition that has been going on for years, but what does this American tradition mean. The Superbowl bring outs people of all different cultures, religions, ethnicity's, beliefs and interests. You'll find moms, dads, brother sisters, friends, religious figures, and even the very young and very old cheering like crazy. As someone who does not follow football on a regular basis i find myself getting just as hyped up as the football fanatics. Superbowl gatherings are a way for people to get together, eat chicken wings and scream endlessly at the television. Maybe if I yell loud enough the players will hear me and run faster to the goal post. The game was covered by NBC news and had numerous entertainment along with the playing. Commerical's are held and then viewed for the first time during breaks and these are the best commercials of the year. It can cost millions just to get a 30 second commercial on Superbowl Sunday. Some can even be viewed in 3D! What does this mean to a culture of Americans? The half time show has to be the creme of the crop performers and so if you are on the Superbowl you know your important American idols.
