February 4, 2005 -- El Paso Police say they see a surge in domestic violence calls on Super Bowl Sunday.
The El Paso Police Department tracks the days they tend to get the most calls and last year Super Bowl Sunday came in first for domestic violence arrests and ranked fifth for domestic violence calls.
Psychologist Dr. Karen Gold says people forget the Super Bowl is just a game and model the aggresive behavior they see on the field, then factor that in with alcohol and gambling and tensions can run high.
