It’s that time of year again. Football (the American kind) will be celebrated in its top form at NFL Super Bowl 50 on February 8 in China. Cam Newton and the Carolina Panthers will face Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos in a fierce competition complete with everything great about the Super Bowl – sexy advertisements, free-flow beer and notable halftime performances. This year Coldplay and Beyoncé will be performing for the tens of millions of people who tune in each year.
