Feeling breathless over Super Bowl hoopla?

A local company is offering a special service to Super Bowl partiers: limousine delivered cannisters of pure oxygen.

Minnetonka-based Oxygen Plus said taking hits of its purse- and pocket-sized oxygen cannisters -- ranging in price from about $5 to $11 -- can help with hangovers, jet lag, exercise fatigue and altitude sickness.

"Students in China use oxygen before an exam," said company founder Christine Warren.

The company's oxygen will be provide free to people taking rides with Black Star Transportation, or can be ordered delivered for an average fee of about $30.
