Is it the action? The drama? The competition? The incredible athletes?

Most likely, everyone's answer is a little different. However, no matter what brought the millions of viewers worldwide to their TVs, this year's NFL championship game, The Super Bowl had it all.

Super Bowl More Like Super Blowout https://teachingkidsnews.com/2014/02/03/1-super-bowl-wrap/ Tue, 04 Feb 2014 03:17:17 +0000 https://teachingkidsnews.com/?p=12244 The Seattle Seahawks won Super Bowl XLVIII in grand style. Seattle crushed Denver 43-8.

Seattle’s number-one ranked defence was commanding. In fact, the defense of Seattle kept Denver scoreless for the first half of the game.

Denver’s number-one ranked offence was pathetic.

It was the first time since 1990 that both the number one-offence and the number-one defence played against each other in the Super Bowl.

Peyton Manning, Denver’s quarterback did try his best, though. He set a record with 33 completions (the number of times a ball is successfully passed to a teammate). Nevertheless, he had a night to forget.

Super Bowl Commercials Don’t Disappoint https://teachingkidsnews.com/2012/02/07/super-bowl-commercials-dont-disappoint/ Wed, 08 Feb 2012 03:00:30 +0000 https://teachingkidsnews.com/?p=5244 Many people like to fast-forward through commercials on TV.

However, there is one time when many people want to watch the commercials. And that's during the Super Bowl football game.

The Super Bowl was played last Sunday.

It has become a tradition that the commercials shown during the Super Bowl are particularly interesting to watch. Many of them are funny.

For instance, in a Volkswagen ad, a dog sees a Volkswagen go by his house. He wants to chase it, but he's too fat to fit through the doggie door.

So he starts exercising himself to get in shape.

He chases his own tennis ball, and he swims laps in a pool.

Eventually, he is able to fit through the doggie door and chase the car.
