Super Bowl Swag

Filed under: Events

Swag is a concept that usually seems to be reserved for awards and fashion shows, but the 32 NFL team owners and other high-profile VIPs at yesterday's Super Bowl also received some great gifts - three different baskets full. Most of it seemed to be edible, but swag is swag, right? The first was a Florida-themed basket (although not everything was from Florida) with, products from Lamas Beauty, Chocolate Gourmet, Er'go Candles, Bella's Confections' Fudge, VitaZest, Terry's Dark Chocolate Oranges, Lindt Chocolate filled with Orange and Salt Water Taffy. The second basket was a safari theme, with goodies including the Thymes Fig Leaf and Cassis Body Lotion, Tastefully Simple Beer Bread, Peeled Snacks and Brownie Points Caramel Pretzel Rods and more from Chocolate Gourmet and VitaZest. The final basket was Arizona-themed in honor of the 2008 Super Bowl location and had Catoctin Jalapeno Cheddar Cheese Popcorn, Prickly Pear Cactus Candy, Tastefully Simple Blue Aztec Chips and Salsa and soaps from Maryam's Soap Nook.

A Look at the Vince Lombardi Trophy

Up for grabs in tomorrow's Super Bowl, in addition to glory, is the Vince Lombardi Trophy. Presented annually to the winning team, the trophy was first crafted in 1971, just before Super Bowl V, by Tiffany & Company from sterling silver. It stands 22-in. tall and weighs 7-lbs. At the time, it was valued at just $12,500, but today it is worth over $25,000 - although the sentimental value for the winning team (and their fans) is priceless.

Filed under: Sports

Sports fans take note: at the Super Bowl this year, Pepsi will giving away a super can valued at $100,000, along with lifetime Super Bowl tickets. Pepsi sales have been in decline for the past year or so, so a contest is just what the brand feels it needs to reinvigorate its customer base. The can is one of a kind, made of sterling silver and studded with diamonds, rubies and sapphires. It bears logos for both Pepsi and the NFL and was "inspired by 40 years of Super Bowl rings."
