We know the reasons for the game’s appeal: The Super Bowl is a de facto national holiday celebrating the nation’s most popular sport. The commercials alone are a huge attraction.  The halftime musical guests — Katy Perry will headline on Sunday — engage still more. As a one-day event, it is unmatched in American sports; only the Olympics can accumulate such huge audiences, but it takes the Games more than two weeks.

In 2014, 112 million tuned in the the Seahawks drubbing of the Denver Broncos. For comparisons sake, the next highest non-football related event watched in the United States in 2014 was the Academy Awards at 45 million.

While we observe important and fantastic events, this is a great possibility to pass our questions according to writing a paper to professional assignment writers.

While the international figures are difficult to tabulate, Reuters reported about 38.5 million would have watched the game outside the U.S. Expect this year’s international audience to be higher.

The NFL has a long way to go to catch up to soccer. The 2014 FIFA World Cup final between Germany and Argentina had an estimated audience of 900 million, though the comparison is skewed since the World Cup is held every four years and the Super Bowl is an annual event.
