Has a Player on the Losing Team Ever Won the Super Bowl MVP?
In the seven decades the Super Bowl has been around, the MVP award has been dominated by players from the winning team. Just once since Super Bowl I in January 1967 did a player who failed to win the league championship take Most Valuable Player hardware.

The Baltimore Colts edged the Dallas Cowboys 16-13 in 1971's Super Bowl V at the Miami Orange Bowl. In the low-scoring affair, Cowboys linebacker Chuck Howley came up with two interceptions and a forced fumble in the loss. Good enough for the MVP award despite being runner-up in the big game.

Howley got over the Super Bowl hump a year later, leading the Dallas defense to a win over the Miami Dolphins in Super Bowl VI for the Cowboys first NFL title. Despite having a good game with a pick and a fumble recovery, that MVP award went to teammate and Dallas quarterback Roger Staubach.
How Many Chicken Wings will be Consumed on Super Sunday?
A lot. A whole lot.

Chicken wings have become the go-to gameday meal for Americans coast to coast, and there's no bigger game or bigger feast than the Super Bowl.

The National Chicken Council is putting the number at 1.45 billion wings being downed on Sunday. That means if distributed evenly among the population of the United States, every person in the country would get four wings for the big game.

Pass the blue cheese.
What is the Average Price of a Super Bowl LVIII Ticket?
In the age of Ticketmaster, Stub Hub, Seat Geek, and a seemingly new after-market ticket site popping up every other day, attending live events has become an enormous business. Whether it's shows, concerts, or sporting events, getting affordable seats is a challenging task, and none more than the Super Bowl.

With tickets ranging from $6,000 to $43,000, the average seat cost for Sunday's big game is around $8,500.

Thanks to a recent surge over the past few days, Super Bowl LVIII is on the path of becoming the most expensive NFL championship ticket in history.

How Many Bags of Chips will be Consumed on Super Bowl Sunday?
If wings are the unofficial meal of the Super Bowl, chips have to be the unofficial snack of choice. Whether it's potato, corn, or tortilla, Americans get their crunch on in a big way each February.

It's estimated that over 11 million pounds of chips will be noshed this Sunday. That comes out to about 26.1 million big bags of salty snack food.

Got Dip?
How Much Does the Lombardi Trophy Weigh?
One of the most iconic championship trophies in all of sports, the Vince Lombardi Trophy will be given to either the Kansas City Chiefs or San Francisco 49ers as Super Bowl LVIII's winning team on Sunday.

Made out of sterling silver, the Lombardi weighs right around seven pounds, 107.3 ounces to be exact. It's just under two feet in height at 20.75 inches.

While it may be a little too tall to be a newborn baby, this is the bundle of joy every player on the field will be chasing in Las Vegas.
