	Description:		The Super Bowl offers a dream opportunity for advertisers, with millions of people in the stands and glued to television screens for the year’s most-watched football game. But the ads are only one side to the game’s spectacle.

In more recent years, the Super Bowl has also become a kind of defacto commentary on race in America - with issues like who performs in the half time show and indeed who most benefits from the sport becoming a national talking point. Today, North American correspondent Farrah Tomazin on the cultural event that is the American Super Bowl. And later - chief sports writer for the Sydney Morning Herald, Andrew Webster speaks to Chris Paine about the game.
