That's a nice hall, but I suggest a trip to Costco for some larger tvs!

Banners blocking the screens, screens too small, apparently not every wall has screens, long tables.........who'd choose to go there to watch it?

My TV at home is bigger than those.

that’s what you get for your 3 million yen join fee plus 40,000 yen a month?

It looks more like a graduation ceremony than a Super Bowl viewing party.

Must have been a really boring game for Chiefs fans!

American Football.... a sport that if they took out half of the time outs it should end in less than 30 minutes...

Does an American company employing U.S. expats pay for this? I can't imagine why anyone would want to join otherwise!

NFL fans need to tune into more AFL games if they want to watch the best football.

Run more, jump more, kick more (tons more) pass more, bump/tackle more and do it over 4 quarters for a play time of 2 hours or more.

And with all of that physicality most players run between 12 - 16kms per game on fields 3 times the area of an American football field.

The Tokyo American Club need to get set up for the AFL final in September where 100,000 people.

I'm sure it'd bring some joy to the patrons.

And btw - I don't mind checking out some of the NFL games just to see what the others are doing.

No doubt AFL football has the most elite athletes. Best sport in the world, hands down!

Having said that, any sport that raises your heartbeat and increases focus and gives enjoyment is a great sport. Enjoy the ones you like, and keep an open mind on the ones you dont so you can find enjoyment in them all.

Thats why Olympics is so popular, its all about the sports. At least for the fans.

The Superbowl has had a good run of close games, so this one was like a throwback to the 80s and 90s when the NFC seemed to blow out the AFC every time. I feel deprived of the normal level of entertainment from the game.

Mahomes is normally box office with his movement and wouldn't be nailed by a four man rush, so maybe there were multiple factors at play. The first half picks he threw were terrible and killed any momentum the Chiefs could have had from forcing that pick off what was a careless throw from Hurts. The Chiefs got into a hole and just kept digging. It was essentially over at half time.
