Super Bowl

On Sunday the 1st of February there was a big event in the USA : the Super Bowl. This year, the Cardinals from Arizona and the Steelers from Pittsburgh confronted each other in Tampa Bay, Florida. The comercials are very famous and the most asked of the American television. Each of them cost about 3 million dollars for 30 seconds. At the end of the game, a jury will determine the winner between all those commercials. In Iowa, as in the US, Super Bowl is a way to meet friends and family and have good time together. I went to the family of my hostfather and met friends of them. Everybody brought some food with them and we spent 3 hours talking and sharing experiences and sport talks. Even if I had difficulties to understand the rules of the game, I enjoyed that time spent in a warm atmosphere of passionate American! It is amazing to consider how much sport is important in the life of American people. Every school has its own team, students pay a lot of attention to their sportwear and sport shoes, stadium are full and people yell to defend their team, etc. Sport is a real part of American culture.
