History of Super Bowl Sunday

The Super Bowl is one of the biggest events in American sports and is typically held on the first Sunday in February. It is also one of the most-watched television events in the United States, with millions of viewers tuning in to watch the game, the halftime show, and the commercials. The winning team is awarded the Vince Lombardi Trophy.

The first ever Super Bowl saw the Kansas City Chiefs go up against the Green Bay Packers on January 15, 1967. Back then, the game was originally called the “AFL-NFL World Championship Game” and was played as a matchup between the champions of the two professional football leagues at the time, which were the AFL (American Football League) and the NFL.

The Super Bowl has been played annually since 1967, with the exception of the strike-shortened 1982 season, when no official champion was crowned. The game has been held on a Sunday in late January or early February every year since its inception, and it is now considered a national holiday in the United States, known as “Super Bowl Sunday.” The Super Bowl has become known for its halftime show and its expensive and highly coveted advertising slots.

Over the years there have been many memorable Super Bowl halftime shows, featuring a wide range of performers from different genres of music.
