Major life events that would be missed to attend a Super Bowl game featuring their favourite NFL team in order of preference include:
* A vacation– 23 percent
* An important work responsibility – 21 percent
* Wedding of a close friend or family member – 20 percent
* Funeral of a loved one – 19 percent
* Birth of their child – 15 percent
"No matter what the reason for tuning into the Super Bowl, many viewers get caught up in the fun and activities associated with the game and end up overspending," said Jackie Warrick, President and Chief Savings Officer at CouponCabin.com. "It's important to be prudent and not break your budget, especially if you're hosting a party or traveling to see your team. In addition, those who plan to wager on the game, whether in office pools or more serious arenas, should make sure they exercise caution to not get carried away."
Not everyone watches the Super Bowl solely for love of the game, though. While 47 percent of those who plan to watch the Super Bowl this year said it's because they love NFL football and would never miss it, others reported different reasons for tuning in. Nearly four-in-ten (37 percent) said they will watch the game primarily for the commercials. Women are significantly more likely to do this than men, at 44 percent to 31 percent, respectively. One-third (33 percent) said they will watch the game because it's fun to go to a Super Bowl party.
