Super Bowl week. Arguably the biggest spectacle on the NFL, this is the showcase week that culminates with the biggest game, as well as the single biggest cultural event on the American calendar, the Super Bowl. While the game has undergone some evolutions over the past 56 years, the premise is still the same: Hype the ever-living [Easterby] out of this event, and then settle the quest for the championship on the field.
However, the Super Bowl is a bit of a fanciful dream for the Houston fan base. In the 51 opportunities that a Houston-based NFL franchise could make a run at the title (accounting for the years between 1996 and 2002 when no team called Houston home), the Super Bowl never saw a Houston squad in the game.
