From my own experience of watching the Super Bowl over the last 42 years, its a once a year occasion that cannot be repeated, the draw is incredible and the fees advertisers pay are outrageous. The half time show is put on to draw non football fans, however, this year they have had trouble getting a big act for political reasons. It will be interesting to see if it effects viewing figures.

Over the years our viewing has changed, we still watch the Linear broadcast , but we both have computers we use during the game for social media and stats. We could go the streaming route ,but we have found the service unreliable at times.
Biggest night of the sporting calendar for us with the added bonus of my sons team the Rams being in the Game.
