In my last post, I had written about the spectacle that is the Super Bowl. All of America comes to a standstill in these four hours- and what are people really watching for?
3 things I think-
a) The Football game itself- this time, it was about whether one of the legends of the game, Peyton Manning to win the elusive Super Bowl and get the monkey off his back regarding his performance in the Big Game!
b) The Half Time show- Remember the wardrobe malfunction and the furore that followed. Everyone forgot about the game- I don't even remember who the winner was. This time it was Prince, and by all accounts, he acquitted himself well, and thank God for no malfunctions there!
c) The Commercials- This is place where companies showcase their big commercials and it seems like Budweiser won it by a mile, not just in terms of having more than half a dozen commercials there, but also the quality. Beer and football just go together, somehow!!
So how did the game end? Thankfully, with Peyton Manning and the Colts winning the coveted title. I still cant get over the title of being World Champions. Could we include one more country to give it that credibility please, even if that is as close geographically as Mexico or Canada. At least, that way, the "world" will have a larger connotation than the borders of the US.
Onto the baseball season now!
