Not _every_ minute, but close enough to check that option. It was one of those rare events where I showed up to the party early enough to get a good seat.

Didn’t watch halftime. Thank god.

I watched the whole thing while wearing my Aaron Rodgers jersey and my Cheesehat.

The dangerhousehold doesn’t have much of an interest in sports, but we do have fun getting together with friends every year to watch the Superbowl. Usually I have to ask who’s playing and don’t much care about the outcome. But one football game a year is fun.

This year was a big deal though, with a bigger gathering and much more interest in who won. Everyone in town was rooting for the Packers (yesterday I saw someone flying a Packers flag under the American flag outside their house). We had a hometown boy on the team, so it was a lot of fun and everyone got into it, in our laidback little way.

So yep, I watched the whole thing. Not every single minute, but almost.

I generally enjoy football, but really don’t care about these teams. Nonetheless, I did watch some of the game, because my dad had acquired a collection of snacks in front of the TV that I wanted to assist in eating.
