It's the only time I ever bother with American Football, but I'm looking forward to this. I think there's a place near me showing the whole thing, and the place happens to be a BBQ smokehouse kind of affair...

Hmm...

Really looking forward to this. Had the opportunity to get over there for the game, well... still do but I won't be there. Primo seats too frown

So, who's winning? I'm putting my money where my mouth is and going for the Packers, despite the bulk of my US mates going for the Steelers, and the fact they look damn near unstoppable on paper. Bold move, and I've a feeling it'll come back to bite me on the arse as I seem to have an impressive ability to curse the game for whichever team I'm backing...

Shopping today, no gym 'til Monday and I'm going to have a huge amount of nachos and beer to work off. biggrin

I'm looking forward to this too. In fact, it's a great weekend of proper sport - 6 Nations and Superbowl woohoo

Plus, I don't need to be in work on Monday morning woohoo

I'll be supporting the underdog as usual although don't really care as long as it's a good game.

West Mids? Damn sorry to hear that Chris. On the plus side you'll still be watching the Superbowl, and people of Ethiopia will probably hold a rock concert for you.
Not many people can say that! biggrin

Hopefully you all get the American commercials and can understand the humour of them.

The little kid (in a Darth Vader costume) in the VW commercial is a hoot when his "powers" finally work. (Dad uses the remote start)

If you don't get the American based commercials, then Youtube SuperBowl Commercials 2011 is your friend
