It was weird when American food franchises started advertising that they would show "the big game this weekend" in Canada and no one knew what they were talking about.

Then it started defaulting to that it must be that American game. Now I imagine most people hear about it from the internet before those signs go up.

A game already described as "On this Sunday"

And it ended up being like the finale of game of thrones, so disappointing.

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 7 points 3 hours ago

the superbowl is the great american holiday of spectacle. the people who watch it for the game are frustrated the best games happened in the playoffs, not the superbowl and that it's bloated with ads. the people who watch for the commercials are frustrated that they're less inventive and that they get pre-released before the super bowl. the people who watch for the halftime show are stuck for 2+ hours waiting for the part they like. the people who watch for the bloodsport don't like that the rules have been adjusted to reduce the harm players experience for their entertainment. the only thing that's holding all these groups together are a mutual desire to eat tortilla chips, dips, and sausages.

and nearly 50% of all americans watch. more people watch than vote. and none of them are happy with it. and we don't even get a day off for it. it's our most bizarre national ritual.

The most fun take I heard about this: "Why are they playing a football game at the Bad Bunny concert?"

[–] darkmogool@feddit.org 4 points 6 hours ago

they say something about football and then it's a bad bunny concert, a massive ad show and some handegg things

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 9 points 9 hours ago

And again, two bands of brawlers beat themselves up over a ball, and they call this uncivilized bar fight "football" despite carrying the ball in the hands most of the time.

The only 'Super Bowl' I'll be enjoying this Sunday

ITT: my people.

I love this community.

If we’re doing bread and circuses in a state-funded colosseum, at least make it interesting and turn some wild animals loose or something. Even the Romans did better than a bunch of sweaty guys tossing around a pig hide in between ads.

There was a pretty sweet jet flyover if you’re into aviation..

I was rooting for the Pats, and if we’re gonna start shooting at the stormtroopers then Boston is a good place to start, again

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 20 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I came across something about it this morning, and thought, 'Oh, is that today?' Then I forgot about it again until this post.

I've never cared about sportsball, but I've learned enough about football to follow a game. I couldn't avoid it. Same for other sports, like baseball, golf, tennis, and even bowling.

I'm old and mostly alone now, I feel no desire to pretend to be interested anymore. Y'all have fun.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 10 points 18 hours ago (4 children)

I never cared for it, but it felt like such an event that I've been to a lot of superb parties over the years. But now I barely knew it was happening.

Same goes for the Olympics. I remember watching it for hours and hours back in the day, but I didn't even know it was happening until I heard Vance got booed.

Culture is shattering.

I just wish they would get to the series finale sometime soon.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

The foreshadowing of the effects of concussions on players seems like they're setting up the finale, but it might take a while to get there.

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 3 points 6 hours ago

Ironically enough, the excess of concussions nowadays are due to overly protective gear. It gives them a sence of protection that leads to more violent tackles, which then leads to more violent headshakes.

It's like when they introduced gloves in boxing. Pre-gloves, it hurt like a motherfucker to hit someone in the face. You'd have just as big of a chance to break your hand as the opponents jaw. So they had to make the gloves 'hurt' again by making them thinner.

This one looks like a long runner. It feels a bit repetitive though

[–] agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Give it another 15,000 years, it'll get more interesting

[–] swab148@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 12 hours ago

Another 3k after that and we can finally find out what happens with SDSU!

Best time to go grocery shopping, stores are empty

[–] sploder@lemmy.world 6 points 16 hours ago

Also a great day to fly. Last year I flew home on a flight with 20 people (including staff) Super Bowl night. I felt like a billionaire lmfao
