When it comes to major sporting events in the United States, nothing tops the Super Bowl. Baseball may be as American as apple pie, but the National Football League long ago eclipsed Major League Baseball in terms of cultural import. Such is the grip of professional football on the American psyche that NFL Sunday is a quasi-religious holiday for many Americans. Even non-football fans will tune in for the year’s Big Game, if only for the television commercials and halftime entertainment show. Given the importance of the Super Bowl, it seems fitting take a look at the X’s and O’s of what makes this such a special event.

Super Bowl 2022 saw the Cincinnati Bengals take on the Los Angeles Rams, as the respective champions of the NFL's two conferences, the American Football Conference (AFC) and the National Football Conference (NFC). Each conference began the playoffs with seven teams. A series of head-to-head, single-elimination matchups culminated in two conference championship games on January 30, 2022. In AFC Championship game, the Cincinnati Bengals defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 27 to 24. In NFC Championship game, the Los Angeles Rams defeated the San Francisco 49ers 20 to 17. The Bengals and the Rams then met in Super Bowl 2022 on February 13, 2022.


The Los Angeles Rams defeated the Cincinnati Bengals by a final score of 23 to 20. The game ended in dramatic fashion after Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford threw a beautiful back-shoulder touchdown pass to wide receiver Cooper Kupp to give the Rams the lead with 1:25 remaining in the fourth quarter. The Rams defense then made a critical stop on fourth down during the Bengals next possession to seal the victory. It was a fitting, Hollywood-style ending to a closely fought game.

Given the large television audience, commercial airtime during the Super Bowl is considered some of the most valuable television airtime. Companies traditionally develop their most expensive, elaborate, and creative advertisements for this broadcast. As such, watching commercials during the Super Bowl is an integral part of the viewing experience.


The NFL and broadcast partners over the years realized they could further capitalize on the Super Bowl’s enormous television audience. Since 1991, the tradition has been to feature a major popular musical act during halftime. Playing the Super Bowl Halftime Show is considered a major career milestone. Famous Super Bowl Halftime Show performances include Michael Jackson in 1993, Diana Ross in 1996, U2 in 2001, Janet Jackson and Justin Timberlake in 2004, and Katy Perry in 2015.

The Super Bowl pregame comprises additional entertainment acts as well as the ceremonial coin-toss, and the singing of the US national anthem. The generally high-degree of patriotic sentiment among Americans means the national anthem is a major part of the Super Bowl. Whitney Houston's performance at Super Bowl XXV in 1991 is widely regarded as one of the best renditions ever.

The Super Bowl is traditionally a major cultural event in the United States. Even people who tend not to follow football or sports in general make a point to watch the Super Bowl. One popular way to do this is by attending a local Super Bowl viewing party. These can be held at either local bars and restaurants, or more often, at the home of a friend or family member. At private gatherings, it is common to have a potluck style meal where each guest is expected to bring a dish to share. Popular dishes during the Super Bowl include nachos, chicken wings, guacamole, chili, pizza, chips, and, of course, beer. Super Bowl Sunday is in fact the second-largest day for food consumption in America, behind only Thanksgiving Day.
