32. Wasn't a fan either

Tue Feb 10, 2026, 10:34 AM

Tuesday

But I can't really remember the last time I enjoyed one - lol (Paul McCartney maybe?). The thing is they'll never be able to satisfy everyone, so no biggie. Hell, I'd probably prefer one of the standout college marching bands most of the time (Ohio State's always does amazing shows).

Halftime is usually when my wife and I do the dishes from all the food we just ate anyway.
