Usage notes

  • This spelling is used, jocularly or seriously, to try to avoid being sued by the NFL, when trying to associate places, events and products with the Super Bowl without acquiring a license first.
  • The term is also used by people who love owls and/or don't really care about football. It's now an annual Internet meme with a dedicated subreddit group.
