Pro Bowl is the star American , game of the National Football League (NFL). It is played at the end of the season after the Super Bowl, the league championship game, making it the last game of the year. Since the merger with the rival American Football League (AFL) in 1970, it has been officially called the AFC-NFC Pro Bowl, matching players in the American Football Conference (AFC) against those in the National Football Conference (NFC). The game has been played at Aloha Stadium in Honolulu, Hawaii, since January 1980.
The NFL was exploring the possibility of moving the Pro Bowl to the host site of the Super Bowl, and holding it the weekend before the Super Bowl starting in 2009. However, the league decided to retain the 2009 game in Honolulu. It has since been reported that the NFL intends to move the 2010 Pro Bowl to the Super Bowl host city and that it will be played one week before the Super Bowl.
