Bust Out The Guacamole, It's Superbowl Sunday!

She's glam, she's posh, she's into football.  Claire Webber brings us her tips for Superbowl Sunday.

1. Pick a team and stick with them.  There's nothing more annoying than when girls cheer for the team that's winning.  You can't change your mind once the coin is flipped.  Pick and stick.
2. If you're only interested in the halftime show, watch the game for five minutes or so before and after Bruce Springsteen takes the stage- nobody will be able to tell!
3. Don't go crazy with delicious Superbowl food in the first five minutes.  There are about three hours of game time, save some food for later.
4. It's the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals playing. The Steelers are favoured to win by 6.5 points, but the Cardinals have a lot of heart going in as the underdogs.  [Quick note: dropping names and stats like these are your best bet for looking/seeming like you know something about football- just make sure you have petty tasks or distractions at your disposal in case you're too believable and someone wants to actually converse]

A Few Key Players To Know

Ben Roethlisberger: QB (Quarterback) for the Steelers.  The Quarterback is the one who throws the ball.  This particular QB is also known as "Big Ben" because he's one of the largest QBs at 6'6".

Troy Polamalu: Safety for the Steelers.  This means the last line of defense.  He is known for his fluffy hair that comes out the back of his helmet.

Kurt Warner: QB for the Cardinals.

Larry Fitzgerald: Wide Receiver for the Cardinals.  The Wide Receiver is the one who runs and catches the ball.  This one has dreadlocks coming out of his helmet and is a huge play-maker.

I'm going with the Steelers because I like Big Ben.  Last time he went to the Superbowl, he didn't do so well, so we're all hoping for better luck this year.  (We meaning the football-loving community who regularly watch the game).

Good luck keeping your facts straight and timing your delivery- if all else fails, just cheer when they score and keep quiet at all other times...  Also worthy of note is that in the States, 16 football fields worth of guacamole are consumed on Superbowl Sunday.
