Good point. And I think you can use it on a later date if unused, right? I'm sure I would have occasion to use it in the future...

Anyone else not watching the Super Bowl tonight? :)

56 days until Opening Day!

Not watching it here. Just got back into town... I'll probably take the dog to the park and then go grocery shopping. During the Super Bowl seems like the best time to go shopping.

I'm so bored that I really truly would be feigning interest in others at this point. Sitting in my car with the heat on flipping between posting, reading, BrickBreaker, and exhibiting a concerted effort to not fall asleep.

I would not be watching even if I wasn't working. I believe in the Lewis Black school of thought which theorizes that the NFL has done everything in its power to make the broadcast unwatchable.

I'm looking forward to Olympic hockey.

How you figure?
The Daytona 500 is next weekend that's only 7days away.

Wikipedia tells me there is only one true Opening Day.

I'll probably see some of it because the wife & kids will have it on. I wouldn't care at all if I missed it entirely. I've got plenty to do without that drivel.

This is not entirely true.

I'm pretty sure that all Amtrak tix are fully refundable as long as you don't print them out.

I'm not either, but I don't think I've watched the Super Bowl in about 17 or 18 years (the one where the Cowboys beat the Bills 52-17). (I watched part of the game when the Eagles played the Patriots.)

I would watch if my team ever made it -- but since (1) they are pretty terrible, (2) have never even played in the Super Bowl, and (3) last won an NFL championship five years before I was born, there doesn't seem to be any danger of that.

Nice to see that The Box is home to many other non Super Bowl watchers. ^

I'll watch off and on until halftime.

Yeah, I'd just drop the money on a car, get an early start, get home and then crawl into bed.:)
