- NEW!

Single event on one night - Super Bowl. Multiple events over many days - World Cup. But guess what, no one really cares. The US won't ever really watch the World Cup in large numbers unless our team gets into the later rounds. That's just the way it is. We wouldn't bother watching any of the Olympics if we didn't dominate the medal count, which is why the summer Olympics are higher rated than the winter Olympics in the US. We do better in the summer. We're isolated and don't need to rely on other cultures to supply entertainment as much of the rest of the world does. Just look at the ratings for Australian made shows compared to US made shows – in Australia! The US shows do much better. This information comes straight from a community of Australians that I know. I'll get them interested in US football as well. Bet money on it.

Incorrect. The World Cup final dwarfs the Super Bowl with 1.3 BILLION viewers (2002) compared to ~100 million for Super Bowl.

Indeed, your facts are dead wrong. The World Cup is indeed the largest event over many days, but the point was that the World Cup *FINAL* has more viewers on its own than the Superbowl.
