Super Bowl Incidentals

The Aaron and Aretha Super Bowl duet on February 5 should be fun. With Stevie Wonder doing the pregame show and the Rolling Stones being featured at Halftime I'm wondering if much of the music this year is a bid for older viewers to tune in.

As an aside, why are at least 3 upcoming Super Bowl games being played in Florida? I don't have anything against Florida, but it would be nice to spread the fun around a bit. And the money.

Speaking of money, lots of TV manufacturers are hoping for a nice slice of the pie. It would be fun to know exactly how much spending a Super Bowl game really does generate. In addition to all the travel, ticket sales, entertainment and advertising that goes on, there's all that food.
