SuperBowl Sunday....

Today was a BIG day here. SuperBowl Sunday - the grand finale of the American football season. Almost a third of every American was watching the game today. In California you had to sit down at 3 pm for kick off since this year's game was played in Miami on the east coast.

We had not plans for watching the game. We're both Swedish and we're not really that interested in sports (actually I'm more slightly more interested than the husband). And a American football game is looooong, almost endless and slow. At least if you're used to watch soccer or ice hockey.

And the rules involves way too much match...

But we always turn on the TV since we enjoy the half time show and the commercials. Yes that's right, the commercials. The most expensive commercial slots of the whole year and therefore most of them are pretty creative (for being TV commercials). Most of them are for beer. Figures...

Anyway, the half time show was Prince, the husband's big idol. And Prince always throws a great show, even though it was only three songs.

So we're happy.

AND we got our big reorganization almost done!

(who won?? Indianapolis something...).

The french tv broadcasted the game but since no one understands the rules the gave a 10 minutes tutorial. I managed to keep my eyes open half an hour and then I went to sleep. I found my husband asleep in front of the tv this morning. He said he'd seen half of the game. We're interested but it's impossible to stay awake all night long.

I thought it was the best half time show in a loong time. Love Prince!
and I so agree, the game is booring and long. Good thing that there is so much more surrounding the super bowl, like the commercials and the food and drinks...
