The Super Bowl is still  over a week away, but it’s never too early to start planning . . . your bathroom breaks.  (???)

If you’re having a Super Bowl party, you can’t really PAUSE the game to hit the restroom . . . and even the game-breaks can be rough, if you don’t want to miss the commercials.

So a new survey asked people for the best and worst times to leave the room:

The top answer was:  Right before the halftime show, 27% said that’s the best time to go to the bathroom.  Another 27% said you should go during the halftime show, but 25% said that’s one of the WORST times.

 

Here’s the rest of the ranking:

1.  During kickoff . . . 19% say it’s a good time, 25% say it’s a bad time.

 

2.  During 1st Quarter commercial breaks . . . 19% good time, 6% bad time.

 

3.  During 2nd Quarter commercial breaks . . . 15% good time, 5% bad time.

 

4.  After the broadcast has ended . . . 13% good time, 3% bad time.

 

5.  Right after the halftime show . . . 12% good time, 4% bad time.

 

6.  During 3rd Quarter commercial breaks . . . 9% good time, 3% bad time.

 

 

Then, 4% to 7% of people think it’s okay to miss a few plays in the first and second quarters, if needed . . . or they try to go IN BETWEEN plays if possible.

And about the same percentage think it’s cool to skip out on the post-game celebrations and interviews.

The times when VERY FEW people are willing to step away are during the third and fourth quarters . . . especially in the final two minutes of the game . . . as well as overtime, if there is one.  (You can see the full chart, here.)
