How long is the Super Bowl?
The Super Bowl is made up of four 15-minute quarters and a half-hour halftime extravaganza. When you factor in advertisements, replays and the occasional injury, the entire game typically takes three hours and 45 minutes from the opening kick-off to the final whistle.
Who is performing on the Super Bowl halftime show?
Perhaps the better question is, who isn’t? An ensemble of performers including Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, and Mary J. Blige will take the stage, and if prior shows are any indication, they may be joined by some surprise guests. The eagerly anticipated event will air live in 180 countries around the globe.
Why does the Super Bowl have Roman numerals?
Roman numerals may seem like an odd choice at a time when most people think IV is an abbreviation for intravenous rather than the number four. However, the NFL uses Roman numerals for the Super Bowl to prevent confusion among fans since the game is played in the calendar year following a recorded season. For instance, Super Bowl LVI will be played in 2022 despite the fact that the regular season was staged in 2021.

- Only seven franchises have won consecutive Super Bowls
