The NFL fan base is growing in the UK, with estimates that it now has around 14 million British fans. Outside of that, while many of us Brits won’t have much of an idea of what is actually going on on the pitch, the Super Bowl and half time show has become a cultural phenomenon and something that many will be staying up late into the night to tune in for.
This weekend there are lots of options for where and how to watch the game and we’ve done some research to pull together a list of ideas for you here.
