Meet The 5 Best Friends Who’ve Done Whatever It Takes To Make Every Single Super Bowl

This year marks the 50th anniversary of the Super Bowl and the NFL is gearing up for it’s most-watched event of all time with the big “Golden Game”.

In recent years, the Super Bowl has become more than just a big sporting event…it’s become a holiday in some ways, all about spending time with friends, eating your favorite snack foods, and talking about the commercials.

With the average cost of a Super Bowl 50 ticket costing $4,957, it’s a far cry from the first game in 1967 when the “AFL-NFL World Championship Game” was practically unknown and only cost $10 a ticket.

It was the start of a now 50 year tradition for the “Superbowl 5”, a group of five men who share an extraordinary bond that has turned out to be a lot more than just about football.

While so much has changed in the NFL and in the world over the past five decades, their story of friendship and dedication shows that sometimes the things that really matter don’t have to.
