Chow / Sports The True Meaning of the Super Bowl

Posted by on Fri, Feb 5, 2010 at 2:16 PM

...is—and everbody knows it—a Sunday afternoon devoted to getting drunk and eating snacks. I've attended many a Super Bowl party, never watching an iota of the game, merely because it is foolish to pass up this U.S.-government-sanctioned daytime inebriation pigout. (I'm the weirdo in the other room reading or out in the yard looking at birds. I am consuming a surprising portion of the beer.)

In the true spirit of the game, please be reminded that Paul Constant recently found the perfect Buffalo wings recipe.

The true meaning of the superbowl is to eat red meat and deny global warming. It must be false, have you seen the snow storm rolling into the east coast ? It is supposed to be the coldest and wettest storm EVER to hit the area.

I'll be making Jambalaya and hitting the mimosas as soon as the pregame show starts.

Tried the wing recipe at your recommendation. Delicious.

Cheap beer, Jim Beam, chili and nachos. I'm going gangbusters on my digestive tract this year.

I started drinking about 15 minutes ago, and will most likely continue doing so throughout the weekend. I have a funny feeling it's gonna be one of those games where I'll need to check Monday's paper to find out who won.

Enjoy, everybody!

Much like I don't need religion to have a moral compass, I seem to do just fine wasting the weekend eating too much and getting buzzed on shitty yellow beer without a football game or a television.

Puppy Bowl and cheap avocados and chicken wing packs.

I'm going to be all tuckered out after a morning shouting abuse at Chelsea v. Arsenal. A 0-0 draw is the only acceptable result (helps my fantasy team, helps my proper team too, presuming they can beat Aston Villa tomorrow).

Don't forget Liverpool-Everton. Laughing at Donovan is the best way to start any weekend.

I can't try Paul's "perfect wing receipe" until I find out what hot sauce he used (and as another commenter mentioned in that old post, if it wasn't Frank's Red Hot, then it was the wrong sauce).

But whether I get to try Paul's wings or not, I will blissfully pass out hours before the game even starts and look up the score (or not) on Monday.
