Interesting. Of course, it would be on in the middle of the night over there.

I've applied for tickets. Unfortunately it's not the Pack, but ah well.

Hmmmm, how about an 8pm kickoff here. It means you lot would get a lunchtime Superbowl.

I tried to apply for the Dolphins-Giants game, but got pushed out by sheer numbers.

Not in a million years would that happen. The networks didn't pay all the money for the game and the sponsors didn't pay over $1,000,000 for 30 second spots just to have it shown in the middle of the day. It's gotta be prime time.

This would be the first outdoor Super Bowl in a climate that actually gets cold in the winter.

Yeah, and Superbowl Sunday is awesome anyway, as it leaves me loads of hours to get drunk beforehand, s usually my favourite team aren't in it and I can just heckle. Not sure I want it in England tbh.

Did you know that the day after the Super Bowl is the #1 sick day in America every single year?

There were over a million people wanting tickets which would appear to justify the NFL "gambling" on playing outside the US.
