Empty Nest Super Bowl

We have been watching the Super Bowl with the same family for the last 20 + years at our home. Yesterday we were trying to figure out how long and to best we could remember was that our 20 something children were crawling at the time of our first Super Bowl party. Now our children have all grown up and moved away from home and it was just the parents watching the game. Yesterday was a departure in another way too. We watched the game at our friends home. She has just recently gotten a new home and has a new big screen TV. So we had our "party" at her place and had a very pleasant time. I am still recovering from all the chip and dip. She is a big Green Bay Packer fan being from Wisconsin and I even tried a "brat" at half time. On another note why would the NFL hire Prince as their half time performer. What a flake! I received an email from someone about my age suggesting that the Kingston Trio would have been perfect! In any case it was a fun relaxing day. We called our kids before we left for the game and they both had their Super Bowl plans. I think the idea of making the day after the Super Bowl a holiday is a good one. Now we have a winter without football :(
