Since Super Bowl Sunday is coming up this weekend, I thought I would provide you with some by-the-numbers trivia. Throw some of this out during your Super Bowl party -- everybody will think you are uber smart.
- 8 million -- pounds of guacamole consumed on Super Bowl Sunday
- 14,500 -- tons of chips eaten
- 17 -- average number of people at a Super Bowl party
- 700,000 -- number of footballs produced annually for official NFL use
- 72 -- number of footballs used for the Super Bowl
- 20 percent -- increase in antacid sales on the Monday after the Super Bowl
- 6 percent -- people who call in sick on the Monday after the Super Bowl
- 50 million -- dollars spent on food during the four days prior to the Super Bowl
And finally, three more pieces of random trivia for you....
- More food is consumed on Super Bowl Sunday than any other day of the year, other than Thanksgiving.
- Super Bowl Sunday is the biggest winter grilling day of the year.
- More drivers are involved in alcohol-related accidents on Super Bowl Sunday than any other day of the year (except St. Patricks' Day) (I would have thought New Year's Eve would have fallen in there as #1 or #2, but I guess not...)
Who are you rooting for? I'm a member of the Steeler Nation.
Enjoy your weekend and your Super Bowl Sunday.
Peace. Out.
