Super Bowl Sunday Plans.
I doubt that I’ll watch the game. I’m not much of a football fan to begin with, and having no geographical or cultural allegiance to either of this year’s contestants, I’ll probably take a pass.
Earlier in the day, however, I will be going with Ken, my bodyguard and Da Chef of da Future to Rutt’s Hutt for deep fried hot dogs, fries, maybe a bowl of chili and a couple three mugs of beer. I spent many of my teen and post-teen years eating Rutt’s Hutt hot dogs, but for my cronies it’s a novel experience.
Maybe after a couple “rippers†(Rutt’s well-done deep fried dogs) and a few brewskies, I’ll feel differently about the watching the obscenely overblown football game.
It all depends on what’s on the History Channel.
The “puppy bowl” is on Animal Planet at 3. An option for the hung-over, non-football friendly, types. BONUS: Bunny cheerleaders this year AND cats at half-time. Whoo-hoo!
I’ll be rooting for the Cardinals.

Good thing you clarified that “rippers” bit; the combo of beer, chili, and dogs had me thinking in a completely different direction…

I like watching the Super Bowl commercials the next day on the web. That’s about the only thing I enjoy about the Super Bowl.
I will, however, be checking out the Puppy Bowl.

I heard on the radio that the pre-game show is 7 1/2 hours. Seriously???! That’s outrageous.
