I'm so glad to see that I'm not the only one who doesn't care at all about football.

I have had two good experiences with Superbowls.

1. One year, a good local restaurant which I couldn't afford had a half price special during the Superbowl. My date and I were the only people in the restaurant except for the staff.

2. Quite a few years ago, the Redskins won the Superbowl and there was a big victory parade downtown on the National Mall a few days later to celebrate. According to some sources, more people turned out for the parade than for any political rally to date, even though it was cold and rainy. The federal government even gave its employees time off of work to attend the parade. I was a fed at the time, and I took a good, long lunch hour, which I did not spend at the parade.
