Similar to the amount of time that football was played during the multi-hour event.
As a non-American, cheeseburger football sure is baffling. Trumpets, marching bands, advertisements, words from sponsors, analysis of team make up, talking heads for half an hour, lots of zooming in and out graphics and animated player cards with stats... Finally the game! Lots of build up, here comes the action.... men run forward a little under 2 meters and fall over. Now everyone is walking off the field and a whole new team comes on to do the same, but in reverse. Except first we go through the ads and the trumpets and the sponsors and what not. Time elapsed: 45 minutes. Game time: 45 seconds.
It's such a slow game! How does it keep people's interest for what seems like half a day to see so little action??
Agreed. I'm a soccer/hockey/volleyball fan myself, and really struggled to pay attention for the 4.5 hour event. 115 minute soccer games (once you include halftime and stoppage) are much more my speed.
