Christy Report post Posted February 4, 2011 (edited) Interesting "Facts" From: http://www.yumsugar.com/Super-Bowl-Fun-Facts-125068 & http://blogs.howstuffworks.com/2011/02/02/ladies-love-the-super-bowl/ 8 million pounds of guacamole is consumed on Super Bowl Sunday. 14,500 tons of chips are eaten along with that guacamole. The average number of people at a Super Bowl party is 17. 5% of Americans will watch the game alone. Budweiser has been the exclusive Super Bowl beer advertiser for the past 13 years. The Super Bowl is measured in Roman numerals because a football season runs the span over two calendar years. The year the season began in 2010 and ends in 2011. Since the 1980s the Super Bowls have always started around 6pm Eastern Standard Time. More drivers are involved in alcohol-related accidents on Super Bowl Sunday than any other day of the year (except St. Patrick's Day), according to the Insurance Information Institute. 35% of people who attend the game write it off as a corporate expense. Over 700,000 footballs are produced annually for official NFL use and 72 of them are used for the Super Bowl. The Dolphin Stadium in Miami has vomitoriums, which is actually an architectural feature, not an official place were people can puke. It's a passage below a tier of seats in an amphitheater through which a crowd can spew out after the game. Super Bowl fans spend more than $50 million on food during the 4 days prior to the super bowl. Super Bowl Sunday is the biggest winter grilling day of the year. 34 percent of the NFL’s viewers are women Among women aged 18 to 49, “Sunday Night Football” is the third most-watched program in the United States 73 percent of single women would rather watch the Super Bowl than have sex. The men, on the other hand, were evenly split on whether they’d watch the game or have sex. Myths From: http://mix941fm.radio.com/2011/02/01/super-bowl-myth-busting/ Everyone flushing the toilet at halftime does not cause sewer problems. It’s been at least a century since sewage systems could be overwhelmed by something like a halftime bathroom rush. We’re in the clear. Domestic violence does not increase. This is an old myth that says the combination of drunkenness and disappointment leads to an increase in men attacking their wives. No statistics have EVER backed this up. We don’t eat half of the country’s avocado supply on Super Bowl Sunday. There’s a popular rumor that Americans eat HALF of the avocados consumed in a year as part of their Super Bowl guacamole. It’s not that high . . . but it is a solid 3% of the total. It might cause heart attacks. There’s a new study that just came out . . . that hasn’t been debunked yet . . . that says the Super Bowl MIGHT lead to more heart attacks. Some of "facts" may not be true just found them interesting =P I believe a lot of them though Note* One of the articles is a couple years old Edited February 4, 2011 by Christy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites 0
