Despite its distant British origins, football is a quintessentially American game that plays a major role in the national psyche, and even more in the life of a city. When the New Orleans Saints defeated the Indianapolis Colts, in the 2010 Super Bowl, it was seen as doing something to restore pride to a city shattered by Hurricane Katrina, in which many of the dispossessed had taken refuge in the Saints' home, the New Orleans Superdome. In that same year American football accounted for eight out of the top ten US television audiences. In 2011 the Super Bowl, in which the Green Bay Packers defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers, was the most watched programme in the history of American television, viewed by more than half the population. Advertisers paid $3 million for a 30-second spot.
