Super Bowl Sunday<\/strong>, sometimes referred to as Super Sunday<\/strong>,[<\/span>1]<\/span><\/sup> is the Sunday on which the Super Bowl is played. On Super Bowl Sunday, several people gather to watch the Super Bowl. Some such gatherings are known for the large amount of food that is consumed by attendees.<\/p>\n

Festivities<\/span><\/h2>\n

As the most watched annual television program in the United States, a significant portion of the country follows the same routine on Super Bowl Sunday. Although it has never been made an official holiday, several commentators refer to it as a holiday due to the way it causes families and friends to gather and celebrate together. <\/span><\/sup> Many Americans who are not typically football fans will still gather and watch the game.Stores are often empty during the game, particularly in the regions represented by the two teams playing in the Super Bowl. <\/span><\/sup><\/p>\n

Some commentators have applauded the idea of making Super Bowl Sunday a national holiday, citing its ability to unite Americans of different races, religions, and economic classes. <\/span><\/sup><\/p>\n

Food<\/span><\/h2>\n

Large amounts of food are typically consumed on Super Bowl Sunday.<\/sup> Super Bowl Sunday is the second\u2013largest day of food consumption in the United States after Thanksgiving.Large amounts of alcohol are consumed during the Super Bowl as well, and some police departments have noticed a dramatic increase in drunk driving on Super Bowl Sunday.<\/sup><\/p>\n

Rather than a sit\u2013down dinner, on Super Bowl Sunday food is usually served buffet style. Foods that are traditionally eaten on Super Bowl Sunday include buffalo wings, pizza, chili, potato chips, and dipping sauces.<\/sup> Many pizza delivery businesses see their amount of orders double because pizza comprises roughly sixty percent of the take out ordered on Super Bowl Sunday. Roughly 28,000,000 pounds (13,000,000\u00a0kg) of chips which if laid end to end would stretch for 293,000 miles, 90 million chicken wings, and 8,000,000 pounds (3,600,000\u00a0kg) of guacamole are consumed during the Super Bowl,if all the guacamole consumed was to be spread over a football field the spread would be 11.8 feet deep, all this food is washed down by 325.5 million gallons of beer which is enough to fill 493 Olympic swimming pools.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
