The Super Bowl survival guide

The Halftime Show
A mini-mini-mini concert which features a band or singer that was popular about the same time the radio was invented and people listened to music on gramophones. This year's act is The Who. Who? An elderly English band with an exceptional guitarist but you wouldn't want to hire him as a babysitter.

The Ads
What the Super Bowl is all about. Major corporations spend millions and millions of dollars to get an ad on during the game because, well, just because, OK! Of course, these are not just any ads but ones that promote beer, fast-food and cars and are supposed to be incredibly funny. To our American friends they are the equivalent of The Goons, Monty Python and Fawlty Towers all rolled into one 30-second vignette. Laugh when your friends do at talking frogs and Clydesdales and you may just survive the Bowl holiday.
