Superbowl Sunday

[olbriar]

This Sunday will be the big Superbowl Sunday. I remember back in the day of hosting or attending some pretty wild parties and watching the big game. Mostly I remember lots of smoking and grilling going on before the game. That was the past. The past decade or so we have just hung out and watched the game. I usually manage to cook something good on the patio but we don't party down on the big day. I will do the same this year. I hope to smoke out something tasty for the occasion. Do you have any big plans for the Sunday game? Special eats or people to party with? Even when the game isn't fun to watch... the commercials are often entertaining. I hope you have fun.

I remember past "big games" that fit your description, but I'm much happier nowadays just relaxing and sometimes we hardly watch at all. This year my wife's favorite team is in it, so we'll be watching, though my interest in professional sports has really waned over the years, so I won't be glued to the television.
We tend also to enjoy the ads. The low point of the game for us is the halftime show, as it has become so overblown and nonsensical. And at times, political.
Sometimes we have watched with a friend or two, but this year we'll just be hanging out at home. Since we're just getting back from a trip and then leaving on another short one next week, I'm glad it will just be low-key. For added excitement, I may decide to have a beer.

Nothing too exciting for me, just a day off from the insanity pile up for me throughout starting on Tue. I just need a day of where I can just be low key without rushing into this or that. (coughmakingplanscough)
