[Updated 1/30 2pm] Congratulations to Daniel Uribe, who won the Beijinger contest for a table of 10 at the official NFL Super Bowl party at Kerry Hotel Beijing!

All of our entrants had all of the answers correct to our three questions:

1. What two NFL Hall of Fame members have visited Beijing on behalf of the NFL in the last two years? Joe Montana and Jerry Rice, teammates who both played for the San Francisco 49ers.

2. What two teams were scheduled to play in Beijing in August 2007 in an exhibition game that was ultimately cancelled? The New England Patriots and the Seattle Seahawks, who coincidentally will meet on Monday morning in the Super Bowl.

3. Who was the Most Valuable Player in the 2014 Super Bowl? Malcolm Smith of the Seattle Seahawks.

The NFL Super Bowl will be played Monday, February 2 at 7.30am Beijing time, with the NFC Champion Seattle Seahawks facing off against the AFC champion New England Patriots.

For those who plan to hide indoor from the Siberian Wrath and watch the game lying on your heavenly bed with a perfect date and an on-bed breakfast: Beijing TV Sports Channel will live broadcast the game at 7:20.  Beijing TV Sports Channel is free so you should have it as long as you got a TV and a cable.  Also a 40-inch TV screen is way better than a 13-inch laptop screen.
