The Super Bowl and the Golden Age of the NFL, the Great Social Glue of the USA
In an era of fragmented entertainment, the NFL stands out as a unifying force in the USA, with 93 of the top 100 TV broadcasts in 2023 being NFL games.

The NFL's popularity has grown despite a general decline in TV consumption, benefiting from a diverse audience and high-profile figures like Taylor Swift. The league's short season and the emergence of new stars contribute to its golden age, contrasting with the longer seasons of other sports like the NBA and MLB.
