Super Bowl LII: Catch the Game of the Year at These Beijing Venues, Feb 5

Super and bowl. Two words that you would never think to put together but through the fine American tradition of hyperbole and sport has become to mean so much to so many (mostly Americans). For the rest of us, it's a time to look on in bafflement and perhaps an excuse to sneak in a few drinks before 8am, potentially derailing an entire day of Monday work in the process.
