Super Bowl is over.  And what a Super Bowl it was. 

In addition to being a full blown techie, I also become an expert on whatever sport happens to be in the spotlight at the time.  For instance, I follow baseball.....slightly.  However at World Series time, I become knowledgable on all the stats as if I had been at every game.

Then the triple crown.  I find my largest hat.  I even go (don't tell my kids) to the local bar that has off track betting as I become an instant horse track junkie  where I spend my grocery money-- just kidding-- on the horses..... and so it is with Super Bowl.

I raised boys.  For  many years, I was surrounded by all sizes and shapes as they watched the Super Bowl.  That time passed so my sister and I decided to entertain at our own party complete with a pool for all to join.  In the last few years, I have hosted my own version of a Super Bowl Party.  Last night was no exception. 

I was cheering on the winning team, although I do not understand that last play where the guy sat on his butt and they got four points??  What was that all about? 

However, I have noted as the years march by --- maybe my main attraction to watching these guys kill themselves are the commercials.  Now tell me, don't you think they are something?

What was your favorite?    I loved several  of them but the winner is (for me) Sketcher sneaks with the dogs.   Budweiser a close runner-up.    Of course the babies adorable especially doreito and Coke with the polar bears too cute. 

Coke must be doing fine though as I heard that it cost 3+ million for one spot.  I saw at least three for them.

P.S.  While writing this....an expert on the subject.... just told me that the BEST commercial was the star wars one.  For me personally,  I do not agree, it was almost my least favorite.  Oh well to each his own!
