What makes for a successful Super Bowl party around these parts

  • My big ass living room and couch.
  • A bunch of cool adults that could care less about football, but love the cultural phenomenon of it.
  • A lot of really good food (although a friend overdid it on the Nachos and under did it with the Kielbasa… I can always eat more Kielbasa).
  • 3 kids under the age of 3 totally losing their shit right before half time and parents that somehow gracefully transitioned them out the door (without losing their shit).
  • A son that did amazingly well at having said pack of kids destroy his room.
  • Madonna!
  • Son that liked Madonna as much as I did (that’s mostly what we talked about this AM).
  • A fairly exciting and entertaining game that has absolutely zero impact on the fate of the world.

(Side note: Commercials were decidedly lame this year.)
