superbowl

Hundreds of East Texans have played professional football, but who has made it to the Super Bowl?

Remember Sam Gordon, the 9-year-old female version of Tecmo Bo Jackson? So does NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Her Pee Wee football highlight reel and gaudy season stats got the attention of NFL executives. She was invited to the Super Bowl in New Orleans after hanging out with Goodell at a Giants game.

The Super Bowl hasn’t always been so super. In fact, throughout the ‘80s and into the first half of the ‘90s many of the games were blowouts the likes of which are rarely seen during the regular season. We’ve had better luck with Super Bowls lately, and this year’s match-up between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Green Bay Packers is about as even as can be.

Kiss rocker Gene Simmons is headed to Dallas for the Super Bowl.

OK, we've all heard of Vitamin water, Gatorade and Powerade, right? But the bottled water craze has finally “jumped the shark” with new MeatWater.  Meat flavored water, seriously? Hopefully Taco Bell isn't involved in this campaign...

So maybe you wanna head to the big football game in Dallas February 6th, but you don't have a ticket.  You can camp out!  Don't know if that will get you into the super football game, but it would get you close.
