Would love to never been there. Watch on tv
I don't watch football or attend football events lol
I'll watch hockey with my grandpa if it's on the TV thoughI think it's similar to the Time Square New Years Celebrations. Everybody knows about it and has probably watched it. But only super dedicated people will actually go in person, but I bet it's quite the experience
It's a lot easier to do something at home or locally with people you care about and a lot cheaper too
Your average American hasn't attended for a couple of reasons:
a) It's SUPER expensive. Not just to go, but if you notice, wherever the Superbowl is held, it's in a neutral stadium, which means fans of BOTH teams have to travel to get there. Which means planes, hotels, rental cars, etc. etc. etc. beyond the extraordinary cost of tickets themselves.
b) It's super hard to plan for. This year, the Superbowl will be held in New Orleans in 59 days, which means right now is the prime time to book plane tickets, hotels, etc. But who's going to be playing? Is it going to be "your team"? Nobody knows, because the playoffs don't even start until January 11th, and the two teams going to the bowl won't be known until January 26th, just 13 days before the Superbowl itself.
Which means fans have just 13 days to figure out how to get there to support their team, hope they can get tickets, hotels, etc. Short term travel booking like that is super expensive (see point a) and beyond the reach of average Americans.
c) It's actually a better experience at home. Unless you LIKE being in a stadium with 76,467 other fans, paying premium prices for snacks, and dealing with the traffic nightmare getting to and from the stadium, it's better to sit at home, in your jammies, in front of a 65" television, watching all the plays in slow-mo 4K detail, with color commentary telling you what to think about it.
Very interesting!
