Super Bowl 59 - 10th February / Played at Caesars Superdome, New Orleans / Screening on Waiheke Island

If there's one sport Americans can justifiably claim to be world champions, it's American football - the game they invented (they just call it football and they call football 'soccer', but let's not go down that rabbit hole) and remain the only nation that takes it seriously.

This will be the 59th edition of the big game that provides the climax to a season that started in September.

Kansas City Chiefs are two-time defending champions - yes, they're the team with Taylor Swift's boyfriend. They've contested four of the past five Super Bowls, won three of them and have the equal best record (15-2) through the current regular season, so they're favoured again.

Their only real defeat came against Buffalo Bills (13-4) - the other came in the final round, when they rested their star players - but because they play in the same American Football Conference, those two teams can't meet in the Super Bowl. Their opponents are more likely to come from Detroit Lions (also 15-2), Minnesota Vikings (14-3) or Philadelphia Eagles (14-3).

If you don't understand the game, you can always tune in for the halftime show, which will feature rapper Kendrick Lamar, who also performed in 2022.
