A different type of sporting equipment has been released in the USA by aluminium foil maker Reynolds Wrap - just in time for today's Super Bowl.
The company - which experiences strong demand during football season because of the need to heat up snacks - has created a new "Hunger Harness" (pictured) so fans have everything they need to stay on the couch.
The wearable, insulated pack features a variety of thermal pouches as well as an integrated food tray "that turns you into a human table" - meaning you never need to miss a play while maintaining your intake of not-so-healthy junk food.
And also in the USA, an anti-vaccination mother has been somewhat ridiculed after asking on social media what she should do to protect her three year old from an outbreak of measles.
She's a member of the "Natural Health Anti-Vaxx Community" group on Facebook, and posted a request for advice on precautions she should take.
The responses came quickly, with one quipping "bring her to the edge of the flat earth...the air is cleaner there," while a Twitter commenter posted a photo with a T-shirt confirming that "Vaccines cause adults" (right).
