Protesters have taken to the streets for the seventh day straight, blocking major roads and bridges and chanting anti-government slogans. Some protesters dressed as Handmaid’s Tale characters took part in demonstrations that saw churches vandalized and Masses disrupted on Tuesday. It was seen as a targeted attack on the Catholic Church, seen as an ally of Poland’s government.

Individual players often have their own bonuses associated with winning the Super Bowl, too....
