The Superbowl

This weekend is the Super Bowl, one of my favorite times in the Winter. The Super Bowl is a championship game for the sport Football. Many people in America love Football and even people who do not necessarily like Football usally still watch the Super Bowl. Many people and places have Super Bowl parties. I always look forward to going to my friends sisters house to enjoy a good time with great people, while also enjoying great football food, such as wings. I also get very excited for half time, where there is always a great performance. Last year one of my favorite artists performed and this year I am happy with the artist as well. The Super Bowl is extra special this year because the Super Bowl is in New York City! This entire week there are many different activities going on in the city and New Jersey because of the Super Bowl here in New York. I am hoping that sometime this week or weekend I will be able to be take part of the festivities. I am looking forward to watching the Super Bowl this Sunday and excited that it has finally come to New York.
