It looks like Super Bowl LIV will consist of the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. The fifty-fourth Super Bowl will air on February 2, 2020 on the Fox network and will take place at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. This year’s sporting event will mark the first time Miami Gardens has hosted the Super Bowl in ten years and the sixth time overall. The last time the event was held at the Hard Rock Stadium was during Super Bowl XLIV.
This year’s game looks to be a fantastic event so far, with a Super Bowl half-time show set to be co-headlined by Shakira and Jeniffer Lopez. Demi Lovato will kick off events by singing the national anthem, and color commentary is planned to be provided by Troy Aikman, while veteran announcer Joe Buck will provide the play-by-play. As always, a number of high-profile Super Bowl commercials are expected, with Fox reportedly charging over $5 million for every thirty seconds of advertising time.
Now, thanks to a win by the Chiefs over the Tennessee Titans and an even more recent win by the 49ers over the Green Bay Packers, football fans now know the two teams competing in Super Bowl LIV will be the Kansas City Chiefs and the San Francisco 49ers. Both teams have had excellent seasons this year, with the 49ers winning fifteen out of eighteen games so far and the Chiefs winning fourteen out eighteen.
This year’s Super Bowl will be Kansas City’s third time ever appearing in the event, having lost once to the Packers in the very first-ever Super Bowl in 1966 and then, four years later, winning against the Minnesota Vikings in Super Bowl IV. Conversely, the 49ers have been to the Super Bowl six times already, with this year’s event marking their seventh attendance. The last time the 49ers appeared at the Super Bowl was in 2013, when they came up just short of the Baltimore Ravens.
The Super Bowl is always something of a cultural event in the United States, where football fans gather in groups to watch two teams battle for money and glory in between seemingly endless streams of expensive & well-crafted commercials. Truly, a growing number of people are tuning in to the sporting event for the commercials alone, which leads to more and more air time being dedicated to advertisements instead of showing viewers the football game they came to see. However, it’s thanks to these ads the game can exist and is available for free to everyone, so when February 2nd rolls around fans should pay just as much attention to the inevitable Coca-Cola bears and Budweiser horses as they do to Patrick Mahomes in Super Bowl LIV.
