No matter what your feelings are about the Green Bay Packers, one can't help but get excited about the Super Bowl today. This is not my team, but the energy created by the Green and gold seen everywhere in Wisconsin is a bit infectious. Even the hamburger buns at Festival Foods are green and gold. I heard a woman in line at the store complain yesterday that this was too much. Other things were going on in the world besides the Super Bowl, she scoffed. This was just after I had dried the tears in the frozen food aisle. We had just put our beloved dog Carley down. Yes, there are other things going on in the world today. But just for one day lets enjoy the fun and excitement that a good football game can bring. Is there anything wrong with putting our troubles aside for gathering of friends and foes over a well planned Super Bowl Party. I think not!
So no matter your allegiance, settle in for an afternoon of carefree fun, with friends, family and food or with a good book if that is your desire, but for one day, let's put all of our cares aside. If you are not a fan of either of these teams, let's cheer that the NFL officials make good calls and that the commercials are especially entertaining!
I wish you all this carefree day!
