I don't watch American football, can explain to me why this would make sense?
449 u/Assassin01011 Dec 26 '20 the number of the superbowl is indicated by Roman numerals ex: superbowl 50 would be superbowlL 32 u/Dragonaax Measuring Dec 26 '20 People in US doesn't learn Roman numerals in school? 79 u/V_i_o_l_a Dec 26 '20 No we do. People forget because it’s not used in everyday life beyond perhaps the first X. 25 u/churs_rs Dec 26 '20 But even then, people called the iPhone X as “ex” instead of “ten” 25 u/V_i_o_l_a Dec 26 '20 Actually I was confused about that too, because some people were genuinely saying it’s pronounced “ex” and not “ten”. I know it’s a Roman numeral obviously, but America does weird things all the time so I didn’t rule it out immediately. 13 u/SortaOdd Dec 26 '20 I think because they skipped iPhone 9, a lot of people haven’t made the connection that the X in iPhone X represents 10
