Super Bowl

ebd08 · January 2012

I hope I didn't steal illinigal's Friday question, but what are your plans for the Super Bowl and who will you root for?

DH is from Boston so we're super excited for the Pats to win!

I didn't realize that the Super Bowl started so late on the East coast. I'm used to being in AZ or TX and it starting a little earlier! That being said, we're probably just hanging out at home since DD's bed time is 7:00. I plan on getting some junk food for us to eat, though.

I'm not sure who we'll root for. I guess the Giants because of Eli Manning? I really don't like Tom Brady. He's too pretty.

We have 4 couples staying at our house for the weekend! It's my cousin, her husband, and three of their couple friends. They aren't going to the game, but just wanted to be downtown for the festivities. They are paying us a little bit but we will be joining in all of the fun too. The kids are going to my parents house and I'm taking Friday and Monday off, so I am REALLY looking forward to a fun time We plan to just be downtown enjoying all the excitement for most of the weekend, then will watch the actual game at our house - we have a theatre with a bar and kegerator in the basement, so it's great for hosting people for something like this. Can't wait! We will definitely be rooting AGAINST the freakin' Patriots

sorry everyone....this house will be full on cheering for the pats. dh grew up out east until he was about 11, so he's a total new england fan!

I grew up in Chicago, so unless the Bears are playing (which is unfortunately hardly ever) I don't have a real strong opinion either way. Tom Brady does kind of irk me though, and my husband isn't a Pats fan at all so we'll probably root for the Giants. We are planning to go downtown tomorrow to check out all the Super Bowl "stuff", but for the actual game we'll be watching from our living room, as usual.

My Dh hates the Patriots, Tom Brady, and Bill Belachik, so he will be rooting for the Giants. Dh says Bill Belachik is a "dirty cheater" which is true since he has been fined for it. Dh and I are planning to watch the game at home. I making chili and beer bread. We think it would be fun to go downtown to the NFL experience or village some night this week or Saturday, but we don't want to pay outrageous amounts for parking, so we probably won't go.

If you happen to have an IUPUI parking tag, you can park for free in one of the ground lots around Blackford Street garage and take the free shuttle to the convention center. We did that on Sunday & it was super easy!

Edited for clarity...

I don't know for sure what we'll be doing. We usually go to DH's parents, but the friends with the twins want to host a party so idk for sure. We are not Tom Brady fans, so we'll be hoping the giants win

We won't be doing anything. I will probably fall asleep once LO is down. We might make some snacks for us to munch on though, since that is the best part of the Superbowl.

I don't care who wins, I think DH wants anyone but the Patriots.

We'll be at our friend's house. As a die-hard Colts fan, I will never root on the Pats. Normally I root for the AFC team, but not the years the Pats are in the bowl. That's like rooting for the Yankees and I'm a huge Red Sox fan.

DH wants to have friends over, but I really, really don't feel like cleaning up after everyone and with a 4 month old, I don't want the germs in our house. I hate football (please no flames). I can't wait for the superbowl to be over with.

No flames here! I'm not a football fan, either, and I live in TEXAS for nine years. I mostly watch for the funny commercials.
