We petition the government to recognize the Monday after the Super Bowl as a federal holiday.
Americans have turned to football as their favorite sport, replacing baseball as America's pasttime. This year's game was among the most watched television broadcasts ever, a feat that is becoming more common each time the game is played.
Americans treat the Super Bowl like a holiday by gathering with friends and family to watch the game. It's time to officially make it a holiday - observed on the following Monday.
