Super Bowl XLVIII
jwhouk:
That means you fit right in with the Denver Broncos offense. :D
A small note to our friends not in the US and Canada: what happened on that first play by the Broncos is not supposed to happen.
Odd note of the day: this was the first time in Super Bowl history where one of the teams didn't attempt a field goal or point-after kick at any time during the game.
Lines:
The Full House yogurt commercial was also hilarious.
Akima:
On Superbowl XLVIII from The Economist of all places.
Incidentally, why are Superbowls numbered in Roman numerals? Nostalgia for gladiatorial combat? To give the bulk grunt a veneer of civilisation? The BBC displays the copyright dates of its programs in Roman numerals, but I always assumed this was to show off their obsolete classical education. Or to conceal the fact that the show is an ancient repeat....
BeoPuppy:
Nah, it's done to give it authenticity. Authentic things ... are counted in roman numerals.
Can't think of any right now ...
Redball:
I haven't paid attention in a few years, but I think the release year of all American movies were shown in Roman numerals.
