Super Bowl? Not.

No. I did not watch the Super Bowl football game. I enjoy high school football and will even watch a few minutes of college football but pro ball doesn't interest me at all. Overall I'd rather watch something else or read a good book.

My neighbors on the hill had a Super Bowl Party. The guests started arriving right after church. I could smell the food on the grill and hear folks laughing and overall having a darn good time hours before the game actually began.

The last Super Bowl party I remember going to was back when the Denver Broncos played somebody. I was in the sixth or seventh grade and was put in charge of watching all the little kids while the adults commenced to eat, drink and be merry. I vaguely remember t-shirts being handed out that said something about "Orange Crush".

Grandmom enjoys watching football. That is the only reason she bought a satellite dish that is the size of a small country. She would put the television on mute during the games because she couldn't stand to listen to the commentators. John Madden, in particular.

Most of us have four seasons in our lives: Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer. For those of you who are sports freaks, you have football season, basketball season, baseball season and so on and so forth. If you want to win at Sports Trivia, don't ask me to be your partner.
