So sports fans, the big game is next Sunday. In past years the Super Bowl would be pretty off-topic for a Black Keys fan board. This year, however, I think it could be the source for a friendly wager. The question - how many times will TBK music be played during the game, either as intro/outro music or in commercials. So in addition to the distinct possibility of Fox picking up something from Brothers to play in and out of commercial, you have at least Cadillac, Subaru, Microsoft, and Zales who may run spots. Perhaps Brandy or some other benefactor would like to offer a prize for the winner, but otherwise it's for bragging rights only.
A few rules - Songs or clips played during live game coverage and half-time only (since that's what I'll be watching). No pre-game shows or stuff on any other channels. Puppy Bowl could play the entire Keys discography and it wouldn't count. Tiebreaker will be instances of Tighten Up. Entries due one hour before game time - 5:30 p.m. EST, 2/6/11
My official guess: 7, with 3 Tighten Ups (Tightens Up?).
