Okay, I got an invitation to a SuperBowl party on Sunday. This is not the type of invitation I usually get. The type of SuperBowl parties I've always attended are the kind where everyone drinks a lot, we pop in a DVD of The Simpsons on a big screen TV, and forget there was a game on. At this one, there will actually be people who intend to watch the game!
I'm trying to decide if I should bother attending. A party sounds fun, but not if people really sit and just watch the game and don't talk. So, if I have no interest in watching the game, will I end up just annoying people who want to watch it if I want to have a conversation? Most people I know realize my complete disinterest in sports, so don't bother inviting me to anything focused on watching a game. Someone suggested I go and just watch the commercials. (I'm leaning toward staying home and getting work done, if you hadn't guessed.)
If I find out there will be others attending who aren't completely interested in watching the game, I might go. So, next question, who's playing?
