Daily Kos: The Origins of Super Bowl Sunday
The Germans, after a month has passed since the winter solstice, celebrate a most curious custom. They gather at each others' homes, and at the temples, and the fields, and eat, and drink, and make sacrifices to Mercury. They shout unto the heavens for many hours, and throw swine back and forth until the sun sets.
