What about World Cup parties? that's the closest analog in soccer/international football. The Superbowl is really just another secular holiday in many ways in the USA.
I'm not really big into American football but I still go hang out with my friends, eat lots of guacamole and chips and try to enjoy myself (come on, it's your friends!)
At least this year one of the teams playing is the greatest American football team to ever grace this green earth, and Seattle gets to show up so it's a nice change of pace.
(The preceding inflammatory statement is by no means hyperbolic opinion in any way shape or form... ;)

- TillE 13y agoThe closest analogue is the European Champions League final - an annual event with a slightly higher worldwide viewership than the Superbowl. There actually is a certain food culture within the stadiums: pies and tea in England, bratwurst and beer in Germany. Amusingly stereotypical, but extremely popular. For viewers at home, not really.
