A cold snap that hit the Dallas area this past week with a vengeance has dampened the spirits of some football fans.
Last night barkeeps and staff at trendy watering holes stood idle and bemoaned the fact that there were quite a few "no-shows" on the pub-crawl circuit which resulted in a big slump in sales on the eve of the big game.
But, despite Mother Nature's awesome fickle finger of fate, it will be business as usual under the big top on Sunday afternoon when the much-anticpated sports event gets underway.
Christina Aguilera will hit the stage to warble the National Anthem in true show-biz tradition to a packed house at the commencement of the festivities.
After all, the show must go on, eh?
In addition to Aguilera, there will be a live performance by Black Eyed Peas at half-time.
Super Bowl XLV pits the Pittsburgh Steelers against the Green Bay Packers - two rough-and-tumble capable teams - out to best each other in a match that is sure to be unforgettable.
However, bookies appear to favor the Packers by 2½.
According to inside sources, the price-tag for a 30-second commercial is a whopping $2.8 - $3 million.
Super Bowl XLV will be the 45th annual edition of the Super Bowl in American football and the 41st annual championship game of the modern-era National Football League (NFL).
On Sunday afternoon - power willing - millions of Americans are expected to tune in from around the country and rustle up a staggering ratings bonanza.
See 'ya there!
