Super Bowl

The championship game of the NFL (National Football League,) played between the champions of the AFC and NFC at a neutral site late January or early February; it is the culmination of the NFL playoffs.

The Super Bowl is one of the most watched television events of the year. Part of the attraction is its high profile halftime and pre-game entertainment. Super Bowl Sunday is the second-biggest feast day of the year after the Thanksgiving holiday and No. 1 in snack food consumption.
