Super Bowl

The sandwich was perfect,

Just the right amount of mustard

On a hero I munched down at half time.

 

What a game, a few surprises,

But the score was my delight.

The team I bet on won, pocket now full,

 

Topped it off with a coke

To ease a mouthful down.

Seems you can't beat this.

 

Been doing it since a kid.

Yes there were sports,

Way back then.

 

Even played as a half back,

That's what they called it then.

Ran like a deer, got a busted leg too.

 

What an interception

When a score was expected.

Tough to lose, but great to win.

I was hoping to see the hawks win. But then, I didn't watch the game. Asteroids versus Earth was much more interesting (?). Like you, I have experienced playing, but got out of the game early because I didn't want any of those friendly concussions that my father got from boxing.

The halftime show was super, especially the animated tiger and the colorful electronic floor even though Lenny sang a song I didn't recognize and the rapper wasn't impressive.

I munched on one half of a five dollar Taco Cabana beef burrito, washed down with fresh squeezed lemonade spiked with Jim Beam. It doesn't get any better than that.
