Mom and Dad are here for a visit and Alex is so happy to have them here. Since my dad loves sports we planned to watch the Super Bowl last night. Here are the post-game highlights:
- Saturday at lunch Art and I were reading the paper when he looked up and said, "Is tomorrow the Super Bowl?" Not sports-obsessed, or oblivious to his surroundings. Not sure which. He spent most of the game on his genealogy surfing Revolutionary War pension records.
- We asked Alex who he was cheering for in the game. He needed to see their colors. He was terribly disappointed that the Tigers were not playing. Then, he said "I thought they were BOWLING!" He refused to watch after that.
- During the halftime show, while The Who performed, my Dad looked up and said, "That's the CSI song!" When Mom and I looked at him, he said, "Isn't it?"
Since we are from Louisiana, the game went well for us. Uncle Brad is over the moon I'm sure. He's been a Saints fan for years and even got to go to one of their games this year (even though it ended badly). So everyone here had a good Super Bowl even if they didn't see any bowling and the Tigers didn't play.
