Super Bowl XLIV will be played on
Sunday, February 7, 2010 at Dolphin Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida. (Prior to January 2010 the stadium is known as
Land Shark Stadium.)
Super Bowl Sunday has become a de facto American national holiday. The half-time shows and commercials are as entertaining as the game itself, and Super Bowl Sunday is the second-largest U.S. food consumption day (after Thanksgiving Day).
Traditionally, millions of people participate in a Super Bowl pool at their office or favorite bar. This is your chance to enter the
LCCF Super Bowl Pool and win valuable
LCCF geocoins. Most football pools are illegal because they involve gambling—but not the LCCF Super Bowl Pool! It’s not gambling because it’s
FREE. Here’s how to play:
- See the pool grid by clicking here.
- Each LCCF member may choose two four squares.
- Post your choices on this thread (e.g. hidegoseek picked C-2 and H-7). Choices are first come, first served. (Only registered LCCF members are eligible to play.) The grid will be regularly updated.
- The actual numbers will be randomly drawn when the grid is filled, or on February 5 if empty squares remain. Once the numbers are drawn the pool is closed to new entries. To avoid disappointment, post your selections by February 4.
- One LCCF geocoin will be awarded at the end of each quarter of play. If the score is tied at the end of the fourth quarter, that score will win a geocoin and another coin will be awarded for the final score. (See trivia below.)
- If a “blank” square wins a quarter, that geocoin will be added to the next quarter’s prize. (If the final score is on a blank square…well, too bad.)
Trivia regarding Super Bowl scoring:
- There has never been a Super Bowl overtime, although three games have been tied in the final minute.
- There has never been a Super Bowl shutout; every Super Bowl participant to date has scored at least 3 points.
- No Super Bowl has ever been scoreless at halftime.

Good luck, everyone! Have fun and enjoy the game.
