Meet the Super Bowlus, the Ultimate Tailgating Aluminum Trailer

What sounds appealing to you: tailgating with your best buds, or a solo road trip on the open road?

If the answer is “both,” then you need the latest offering from Bowlus Road Chief, a brand that crafts classic aluminum trailers. This collector’s edition model is dubbed the Super Bowlus, and for obvious reasons: it comes complete decked out in football swag.

We’re talking a hook-up for a barbecue pit, indoor/outdoor tables and seating, and additional screen attachments. But don’t think you can only bust it out during the NFL playoffs. This bad boy was made for tailgating all footballl season long (or hell, during any season — baseball, soccer, basketball, hockey, curling, whatever floats your boat).

The Super Bowlus is an upgrade on the brand’s base option, the Super Bowlus Road Chief. Features include a full-size sofa, two armchairs, a small but fully-stocked kitchen, built-in charging stations, and a smart layout. But, of course, the Super Bowlus has leather accents and a unique color scheme that you won’t see in any other models.

Fun fact: The Bowlus Road Chief dates back to 1935 and a man named Hawley Bowlus. His initial design was the first-ever aluminum trailer; Airstreams were introduced until a few years later by a previous Bowlus employee.

If this looks like it should be your new favorite toy, you’re going to have to act fast; less than five Super Bowlus will be made, and one of those has already been sold. The cost? A cool $147,500, which is only a few grand more than the Bowl Road Chief base model. For more information, head to the Bowlus website.

And because everyone knows the commercials are the best part of the Super Bowl, check out this Super Bowlus cameo in this hilarious Squarespace ad starring Keanu Reeves — did you know that he designs bikes through his own shop, Arch Motorcycles?

Jared Padalecki and Jensen Ackles in Supernatura

Jared Padalecki has had the kind of TV career that most actors would kill for, and his time co-starring on Supernatural with Jensen Ackles was the crowning achievement. Now, Padalecki is set to reunite with his Supernatural c0-lead for the final season of The Boys, a prospect that is apparently pretty scary for him.

“I don’t know a whole lot about it, which is effing terrifying,” he told Business Insider.

8 high-stakes shows like Squid Game you can’t miss
Death, drama, and game shows are quite a mix in these Squid Game-like series
The cast of season 3 of Squid Game.

Squid Game surely superseded any expectations the creators had when the South Korean drama series premiered in 2021. Now the most popular show in the history of Netflix, the series follows a group of desperate contestants who will sacrifice anything to win a massive cash prize in a long line of lethal games and activities. The concept seems more like something that would be on reality TV than scripted, but the creators more than make everything work. Squid Game is able to grapple with a lot of thought-provoking issues while never shying away from addicting devices and unique episodes that beg to keep viewers hooked to the screen all night long.

There's nothing exactly like Squid Game, or at least nothing that has equaled it in popularity. We've dove into the deepest parts of the TV landscape to find series that resemble the South Korean phenomenon in the way they create drama, the setting they take place in, or the genre elements they imitate. These are shows like Squid Game that you need to watch right away.

The first teaser for Paul Thomas Anderson’s Leonardo DiCaprio movie is here
This is DiCaprio's first collaboration with PTA
Leonardo DiCaprio in One Battle After Another

Few actors have worked with a more impressive lineup of directors than Leonardo DiCaprio, and now, the actor is adding Paul Thomas Anderson to that list. The first trailer for their collaboration, which is titled One Battle After Another, has just dropped, and it suggests that the movie may have more action than some of Anderson's quieter films.

We don't know much about the movie's plot, but the teaser sees DiCaprio wielding a gun as well as the kind of imagery that would suggest plenty of action. We see a woman firing a machine gun, Sean Penn dragging someone away, and DiCaprio contemplatively sipping on a beer. Regina Hall, Teyana Taylor, Benicio del Toro and  Penn are all set to co-star in the film alongside DiCaprio.
