The Super Bowl is less than two weeks away . . . and at this point, it's basically a national holiday. And most of us want it to be official, so we can ALL have a long weekend.
According to a new survey, 55% of people say the Monday after the Super Bowl should be a national holiday.
The idea is that everyone is exhausted and hung over from all the festivities. And that's a real thing. A study from a few years back found people are generally much less productive the day after the Super Bowl.
There are other distractions for some people too: Like trying to focus on work "after a riveting game," and the let-down of realizing football season is over.
It's also a Monday, which has its own baggage. 41% of people say that the Monday after the Super Bowl is one of the worst Mondays of the year.
A national holiday would have to be granted by the government and President Trump, and it's unlikely to gain any traction there. At least for this year.
