This web page will be talking about the history of Super Bowl.

The Super Bowl is a NFL championship game. The Super Bowl is held every year in the United States. The first Super Bowl was held on January 15, 1967. In my opinion it's a long time ago. The Green Bay Packers played the Kansas City Chiefs. The Green Bay Packers defeated Kansas City by 35 points to 10. The game was played at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

About 111 million viewers watched the 2011 Super Bowl. When the first super bowl match was played, 1-minute commercials cost about $75,000 to $85,000. Today the average cost to place an ad is about $2.8 million for 30 seconds of air time. That's a lot of money! (:
