Celebrated: Every year! There is one set of league championships where the locations play among the leagues, then a league conference championship game to determine the teams that will go on the the Super Bowl.

Celebrated: Every year, the date of the Super Bowl is determined from the date of the preceding Labor Day date, so if Labor Day last September occurred on September 4, 2023; the Super Bowl is scheduled exactly five months plus one week later on the day February 11, 2024. Originally it was exactly the same date, but this past season, the NFL added a game to its regular season this year, pushing everything back a week, which will permanently add one week later than what was usual. The 2021 NFL season was the first year for the league’s 18-week, 17-game season. This was the first change since 1978 whereby the number of games was changed, where the NFL moved from a 14 game season to a 16 game season.

Why is it called “Super Bowl”: The Kansas City Chiefs owner and the AFL conference founder Lamar Hunt had a daughter who, when she was young played with a very bouncy rubber ball which was called a “Super Ball”. That was the genesis of the term “Super Bowl”.
