Here are some fun facts (well, they were fun for ME to read anyway...) SB XLI ticket distribution: AFC Champion - 17.5 percent NFC Champion - 17.5 percent Host Team (Dolphins) - 5.0 percent Other 29 Teams - 34.8 percent NFL - 25.2 percent Site: Dolphin Stadium - Miami Gardens, Fla. Date: Feb. 4, 2007 Game time: 6 p.m. EST Cost of the Vince Lombardi Trophy: $25,000 Who makes Super Bowl Trophy: Tiffany & Co. of New York. Cost of Super Bowl rings: League pays for up to 150 rings at $5,000 per ring (plus adjustments for increases in gold and diamonds). League also pays for 150 pieces of jewelry for the losing team, which may not cost more than one-half the price set for the Super Bowl ring. Host city economic impact: Super Bowl XL generated a total economic impact in Detroit of $261 million, according to a study commissioned by Detroit Metro Convention & Visitors Bureau. TV/Radio coverage: CBS will be televising its 15th Super Bowl. CBS Radio-Westwood One will be broadcasting its 20th consecutive Super Bowl, 33nd overall Super Bowl XL TV audience: Last year's game was watched by 141.4 million viewers. The 10 most-watched programs in TV history are all Super Bowls.
