Note - at the risk of further extending this now off topic discussion, for those who are on this list but not residing in North America, here's Bob's definition of Super Bowl Super Bowl – noun that used to refer to the championship game of the “professional players” of the so-called National Football League (so-called because the game does not resemble football as it is known the world over except in North America. In North America, it is a team game with 11 vastly overpaid, chemically enhanced players on both sides, similar to rugby but where forward passing is allowed and much emphasis is on physical tackling. It is now an excuse for American couch potatoes to consume more snack food than on any other day, (including 4,000 tons of tortilla chips, 4,000 tons of popcorn and 14,000 tons of potato chips, more than double the average on any other day), and it's main purpose is sell television advertising. During Super Bowl Sunday 2006, viewers ate 49.5 million pounds of avocados, enough to cover Ford Field end zone to end zone in more than 11.8 feet of guacamole.
