The Importance Of The Super Bowl In San Francisco
The Super Bowl is one of the biggest highlights for football that happens once a year, and this year it’s taking place in San Francisco. San Francisco has such a large population because of the amount of people living there and themselves losing their jobs. According to San Francisco Nudges Homeless Away From Super Bowl Fan Village, “San Francisco, the 13th-biggest U.S. city by population, had an estimated 6,775 homeless people in 2015, with 64 percent living outside of shelters…” This Sunday when the Super Bowl takes place, David Perry, the Super Bowl host committee's head, wants San Francisco to look safe, secure, and sanitary, and to do that they want the homeless to get sheltered, and not stay on the streets.

    Research Paper On Superbowls

    Every time I watch the Superbowl, I find myself (under the interrogative look of my friends) bitching about the effectiveness of “xyz” commercial that somehow succeeded in producing laughter among the audience. Then I start explaining that too often the joke becomes bigger than the brand and when it does, chances are you will most likely remember the punch line than the advertiser. If you just invested $2.6 million for a 30 sec. and everybody misses the point, it’s a huge waste of money.…

    The day had finally come. No it wasn't Christmas or the New Year, Kwanza or even Easter. It was the the most glorious day of all days, the Superbowl. Now for anyone who has never heard of the Superbowl and lives in America, that person has either lived in a cave for their whole life or…well that I think would be safe to say that's probably the only case because everyone knows what the Superbowl is. Anyway, this Superbowl Sunday started off just a little bit different than most Superbowl's I've had off from work and for any of this day to make any sense for anyone that wasn't there, I'm going to have to start by including some background information on the previous events that led up to this day.…

    Superbowl and culture

    Imagine 96.9 million people watching the same thing, ingesting copious amounts of food and beer, and cheering maliciously for a squad that may or may not be their team of choice. I grew up in South Africa where the Super bowl is not nearly as big as it is in the United States. I was naive to the idea of watching any big game besides the World Cup. When I moved to the US I did not know what the Super bowl was. 198 countries watch the Super bowl and it is aired in 25 different languages across the world. I can’t help but think to myself that this is just a game and I don’t really care who wins, even though my surrounding suggested otherwise. I am sitting in a room full of diehard Seahawks fans. All of the furniture has been moved to each wall in the little room so that everyone can see the big flat screen TV. Beers are cracked, chip bags are opened, and we are about to watch the most watched TV program in United States history, the Super Bowl. Bronco’s fans are turned away and the guys roar at them as they try to enter the small apartment. “If you are not supporting the Seahawks you can stand up and get the hell out” one of my friends yelled as non-supporters walked away. Bud Light is the beer of choice in the room and Doritos are the chip of choice. As the game is about to start the room ignites and everyone is immediately fired up. The commercials play through the loud chatter in the apartment and they seem to be unimportant except for a few that are considered memorable. The Super Bowl is a spectacle and there is nothing else like it. The Super Bowl is a large reflection of American culture. Through media, commercials, and the atmosphere that this game creates, patriotism and masculinity are unintentionally the main aspects of this spectacle.…

    What America Is Doing About the Homeless

    New York City has an overwhelming amount of homeless people on the streets is very obvious. People always wondered how and why these people become this way and why it seems like nothing is being done to change it. Some think that homeless people are just people who lost their jobs and are too lazy to get back into the workforce, but research has shown that that is not the case. The statistics of homelessness in America is shocking considering that the country is one that is more advanced, especially from the technological standpoint, perhaps far more than most other countries of the world.…

    The Social Injustices of Homelessness

    Homelessness is a growing social injustice in the United States. The degradation that these people face every day is terrifying. It is a crisis that we too often ignore, hoping it will restore itself. That assumption delivers a widespread lack of understanding about the facts that lead to homelessness. Homelessness exists as a problem that we should acknowledge and treat.…
