Super Bowl boosts retail spending despite inflation

World Today

 

America’s Super Bowl is approaching. It’s estimated that 193 million U.S. adults plan to tune in Sunday to watch the Kansas City Chiefs face off against the Philadelphia Eagles in the National Football League championship. 103 million of them plan to throw or attend a Super Bowl party. And it appears inflation in the economy will not deter partiers, but contribute to what could be a near-record amount of spending on the contest.
