Superb Owl


As you undoubtedly know, the Super Bowl is today.  In fact, it starts in about 20 minutes. As you also undoubtedly know, the game is here in Atlanta.  This town is going crazy.

From $500 a ticket hip-hop shows every night to free concerts in Centennial Park, from road closures that started a week before the game to protests over everything from social injustice to the Saints not being in the game (which some claim is an injustice in and of itself), it's been a non-stop spectacle.  All that, and Pepsi signs plastered all over the hometown and birthplace of Coca-Cola.

For our part, we've not taken part in any of the hoopla and will be cheering for New England's favorite (adopted) son Tom Brady and the New England Patriots from the privacy of our home.  The Sports Desk has teamed with the Introvert Desk to lie low until all this blows over. 

This is a big town and hospitality is our biggest industry.  We can handle this, but we here at all of the Desks will be glad when this is over.

By the way, we were going to post something after the game was over, but realistically, we'll probably be drunk by then, so for now we'll say GO PATRIOTS and VIVA LA BRADY!
