Abstract

The Super Bowl is America’s premier sporting event. This chapter details basic economic facts about the game and examines the controversy surrounding the purported economic impact of the game on host communities. While the league and sports boosters claim that the game brings up to a $500 million economic impact to host cities, a review of the literature suggests that the true economic impact is a fraction of this amount.

Fußnoten
1
Parts of this chapter draw from Victor Matheson, “Economics of the Super Bowl,” in L. Kahane & S. Shmanske (Eds.), The Oxford Handbook of Sports Economics, Volume 1 (pp. 470–484). London: Oxford University Press, 2012.
 
2
If any team is equally likely to make the Super Bowl in a given year, the probability of no team ever playing at home through the first 54 years of the event is an unlikely, but not absurdly low 1.76%.
 
3
A group of economists is formally referred to as a “supply of economists.”
