3 reasons why Brits must stay awake to watch Super Bowl 50

Published:

For Americans, the Super Bowl is a big deal. There’s beer and parties and an endless supply of food. But for us Brits, the Super Bowl is a late-night event that finishes just hours before we start the working week.

Of course, die-hard fans will stay up to catch the self-titled Greatest Show on Earth regardless. But for casual supporters it can be difficult to prioritise watching a game that takes hours to complete over vital Sunday-night shuteye.

Well, Ladbrokes are here to convince those informal viewers otherwise.

There are, in fact, numerous reasons to watch the Super Bowl in its entirety. Beyond the actual action itself, which is often closely fought, there’s the bonus of a music concert to pass the half-time break with, not to mention all the controversy that those gigs often court.

Even better, there are a plethora of ways to line your pocket in each of the game’s four quarters, with trends grown across the 49 previous Super Bowls providing a considerable sample size.

In the interactive preview below, Ladbrokes present three reasons to stay up for Super Bowl 50, along with recommended bets for each of the four quarters based on those trends.
