Superbowl

This evening is the Superbowl. I am not a big sports fan, so I will only be watching to see the new commercials and the half time show. That is only if nothing more interesting is on television. Today, many people will be betting and sweating. Betting, because that is what you do on Superbowl day and sweating, if you did not use common sense and bet too much money. Last night the parking lot of the local supermarket was totally full. Everyone must have been shopping for their Superbowl party foods. A lot of chickens will lose their wings tonight. If we checked cholesterol levels tomorrow morning they will have skyrocketed. Chips, dips, blue cheese on the wings, heros (or grinders, if you are in New England), cakes, cookies and brownies. It is a fun day. If your team wins, you can look forward to a parade. If your team loses, it will be rehashed by everyone you know, the next day. Either way, Superbowl had become an American holiday.
