Just a little over two days remain until kickoff of Super Bowl XLIV, (I hope you’re up to speed on your Roman Numerals,) and the fan frenzy continues. Whether you’re stocking up on Cheetos and bean-dip at home, setting your ringtone ton the NFL theme song, or dropping a cool $1,464 (minimum!) for a ticket to get into the stadium, if you’re a football fan–you’re getting pumped to see the raw gritty action between the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts.
