Super Bowl: Sunday or Saturday?

[TacklingDummy]

Should the Super Bowl be on Sunday or Saturday?

Sunday, and the developed worlds country with the least amount of vacation days should make monday a federal holiday.

Well, unless you work for the Government or a bank, the vast majority of people still have to work on federal holidays.

I say it should be played on a Saturday. Many people do have to work on Sundays, but not the amount that have to work on Mondays. I also think the game should start EARLIER in the day.

I'm fine with Sunday... It's been on a Sunday for 46 years, no reason to change it now. It's not like the game ends at 2AM or anything. Game's usually over by about 10:30 - 11:00. I'm not usually in bed by then, anyway.

Saturday

Yeah, no way that will EVER happen. The Prime Time TV hours are what generate the most viewers and, more importantly, the most advertising dollars.

Saturday, so I can drink more.

Saturday makes much more sense to me... A day of recovery before work on Monday for those who watch it and party.

Well, I agree it will never be on earlier, but I think if it were, there would be just as many people watching & most likely MORE people would watch the ENTIRE game.

I wish it was on Saturday. You can't party too hard if you have to get up early Monday morning like most people do.

You should move out west. Games always start earlier out here.

[trapezeus]

it'll start earlier when they do the london super bowl.

Well, I do live on the West Coast.................................of Florida.

I did live in Oregon for a while. Great for night games, not so much for the early games on Sunday. I don't think it would be a bad idea to start the early Sunday games at 2 PM instead of 1 PM.

Yeah I love the earlier night games. When I lived in Las Vegas, 10 am felt a little too early for me for Bills games, especially if you're out late partying the night before.

Close vote.

I'm a traditionalist...Sunday.

If you get hammered and have to go to work Monday with a hangover, tough **** and suffer through it like a man.

Its been called Super Bowl Sunday for ever. The NFL relies on people who have not watched a single game to know that the Super Bowl is on Sunday. I like it where it is.

I just wish they'd get rid of the bye week in between but I know that won't happen.

Sunday..............Its a 3 day weekend then....

Well, I like the bye week myself. After the Super Bowl is over, there are no more games until the HOF game next year.

I can't believe the amount of Saturdays...
Very surprised.
The NFL is to be played on SUNDAY period..

[Night Train]

Pretty soon, they'll start it at 10pm Eastern in March after 6 weeks of hype and charge $$ for the honor of watching it. :rolleyes:

Well, the NFL is already played on Thursdays, Saturdays (on occasion), & Mondays.
