All Things SUPER BOWL

I’m still pretty sour about the 49ers losing to the Eagles, because our QB couldn’t throw a pass. Ahh, what might have been.

Not sure I care who wins, but I’ll lean to the “Magic Man” Mahomes.

Going up to that God-awful City of San Francisco to watch with some friends and relatives. Wish me luck, though, with the crime, bad smell and avoiding needles and everything. :grinning:

You forgot weed sold on every street corner, Prop 65, and no Happy Meals. And those PAPER STRAWS!

Oh, and GO EAGLES!

I was going to mention the lack of Happy Meals, but the last time I went to McDonalds was HS. So, that part won’t worry me as I enter the city limits.

In terms of the weed problem, I’ll be wearing something similar to what Cartman wore in South Park when he entered SF.

Go Chiefs! Patrick Mahomes went to Texas Tech where I am alumni, where I work and my daughter is attending.

We (like much of Philadelphia) have tons of respect for Andy Reid, so I really can’t be anything but happy either way

Eagles country here. Excitement is already sky high. People have been wearing their Eagles gear-or anything green-all week. A number of schools in the area have already announced a 2 hour delay for Monday morning, win or lose.

My DiL works in a health profession and all their appointments for Monday and Thursday have been cancelled. Thursday is apparently the proposed date for the victory parade in Philly. jawn indeed

Interesting that they’d do a victory parade for the Chiefs.

My DH is a huge 49ers fan and a good friend is a Buffalo fan we were hoping for that Super Bowl matchup. The 49er defeat was really a tough way to go after a great season.

However, 2 of my kids live in Philly so Fly Eagles Fly will be the theme here on Sunday. No party to go to, so I will only sort of be watching.

I was just vastly disappointed to learn that

Will there be a Kitten Bowl 2023?
The Great American Rescue Bowl is stepping in to replace the Kitten Bowl after Hallmark decided to cancel the fan-favorite feline event.

@Marilyn it looks like they have cats too. I will have to see if I can find this one Sunday. One of the cats is a black cat like my Daisy in my avatar.

I went to undergrad and H went to grad school in Phila. We both have happy memories of time spent there so we’ll be rooting for the Eagles on Sunday.

We used to watch for the half time show and the ads. These days we watch both afterwards on Youtube. H has already decided to make a quick run to Publix after the game starts, thinking the store will be nearly vacant. We’re definitely oddballs in our area where football is nearly a religion.

@sushiritto great post, it gave me a chuckle. My husband also wanted the 49ers.

Don’t forget the Puppy Bowl!

Sadly, Snoop and Martha Stewart are not the commentators like last year, but still worth a watch:
