It has been estimated that 100,000,000 million people watch the Super Bowl each year. Although the football game is broadcast to 225 countries, we can assume that the majority of viewers are American as the two teams in competition are American teams.
Not everyone in the United States, though, is a football fan. Some of us like to do other activities, so here is a list of neat things to do INSTEAD of watching the pig skin warriors:
Go swimming or walk along the beach. You might be able to get some beach walking time in without the crowds although water temperatures are chilly for swimming. Indoor pools are a good bet. Don?t forget your flip flops and towel.
Go shopping. This football game is so popular that stores have special sales going on. Might as well take advantage of low prices on selected items, and the stores will be noticeably less crowded.
See a movie. This week happens to be loaded with interesting movies: The Grey with Liam Neeson, Underworld Awakening starring Kate Beckinsale, Katherine Heigl in One for the Money, Red Tails, Man on a Ledge, and the 9/11 film Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close.
Exercise either outside or at the gym. I was at the gym last year during Super Bowl and had my pick of machines to use.
Read a good book. Normally, you probably read the paper, online news and such. Treat yourself to a great story, whether it be from the library, the bookstore, or downloaded to your Amazon Kindle Fire. According to Bowker Info, over 300,000 titles were published in 2010. Take your pick!
Ever visited Ancestry.com? Curious about your family history? Are you that person in the family that keeps everyone together? Right now Ancestry.com has a 14-day free trial to see if you find it as interesting as we do.
Clean out a closet. It doesn?t matter who you are or where you live. If a closet hasn?t been straightened in six months, its due. Cleaning and organizing are how some people destress. It?s also nice to donate items you don?t need.
It?s tax time. If you haven?t started your tax returns, this is prime time.
When is the last time you planned a vacation or even a weekend getaway? If you can?t remember, perhaps some research on travel destinations might be in order. Sit down with your favorite beverage and start planning.
Don?t forget the luxury of a bubble bath and soaking to your heart?s content. Slow down and take some time for yourself. Monday comes soon enough.
