The heartbeat of America.Sadly, this year Katie and I aren't enjoying the Super Bowl in the company of friends who care more about football than us. There is a university holiday tomorrow, so in theory we could stay up until 5:00 AM watching at a bar, but honestly, without the friends (and chicken wings) ... meh.
We have been able to track Super Bowl's prestige on Google trends, though.
The top 100 searches on google now. Mmmm... chicken wings.Looking at the peaks for searches for the term "Super Bowl" over the past four years (screenshot up top), notice the huge surge around 2004. Perhaps the game was 4X more interesting that year, but Katie's probably right that the peak related more to Janet Jackson's wardrobe malfunction.
Alas we'll have to live memorable moments in American popular media history from afar, days after they happen, via web-clips.
