Tis, the Eve before Super Bowl XLI (Forty One for Non-Romans), the most watched sporting event in the world. Although, some viewers do watch a little of the football game, a percentage of the viewers are only interested in the advertisements. The Super Bowl is most likely the only TV show that individuals watch in order to see the advertisements. The majority of the advertisements that you watch will be 30 second spots. Dependent on the placement of the spot, advertisers are paying up 2.6 million dollars for the spot, excluding the production cost. The top advertiser again this year will be from the folks that produce Budweiser Beer. General Motors expended the second highest budget for advertisements with Pepsi-Cola being third place on the list.

However, the emphasis should really be on the football game. Predictions run wild as to who will win the game between the Indianapolis Colts and Chicago Bears. There are several ways to pick the winner. If you notice the symbol of the Colts is a horseshoe. However, when you tip the Bears symbol of a capital C on end, it also represents a horseshoe. If you are of Irish descent, you will recognize the horseshoe as a symbol of good luck. For good luck, the horseshoe must remain upright, or the luck runs out of it. The Chicago symbol of a C resembling a horseshoe is laying on it's side, consequently the luck of the Chicago Bears has run out. Pick the Colts to win Super Bowl XLI.
