The Super Bowl is one of the biggest days in America. There are millions and millions of eyeballs on TVs across the country fixated on football’s biggest game. Outside of Chiefs and 49ers fans, a large majority of the country will not have a dog in the fight, so they will hang out with friends and family and enjoy the game for what it is. For what is left of the population, you either will not be watching at all or you are trying to make some extra money gambling on the big day.
