Super User SirSnookalot Posted January 23, 2014 Super User Posted January 23, 2014 You have seen them all the way back to 67? Impressive. I've seen every one too, I may have fallen asleep in a few but I saw the kickoff.......lol. Before the Superbowl I saw many NFL championships on TV. My Lions were at home in 57' 59-14 against the Browns, last good team we had.................hahaha. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted January 23, 2014 Super User Posted January 23, 2014 I was in the 9th grade and attended every Chief's home game that year ('66 season). One of my teachers bought two season tickets in the Wolf Pack at Kansas City's old Municipal Stadium. Super Bowl I as it has come to be known was actually called The World Championship Game, January 15, 1967. Three years later, my senior year of high school, the Chiefs won their first and last World Championship Game (Super Bowl IV) 23-7 against the Minnesota Vikings. The following year the AFL-NFL merged and the "Super Bowl" was born. The Kansas City Chiefs have never been back. Quote
Siebert Outdoors Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Fish!! I'm not that big of a football fan anymore. I do still watch it here and there. Mostly college. Quote
mnbassman23 Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Since it's a frozen tundra up here I will be watching the superbowl. If there was open water I'd be on the lake. 1 Quote
py8pointer Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 Fishing in the morning and afternoon, then it's game time. Quote
Jolly Green Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Super Bowl. But I purposely fish through regular season Packer games because I have all the water to myself. I'm a transplant to this state from Cincinnati, so not only do I not bleed green and gold, I have little natural football pride to begin with. Quote
Super User Maxximus Redneckus Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 Fishing not even a second thought .i dont like football Quote

Hyrule Bass Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 super bowl easily. its the last nfl football game of the year until preseason in august. plus i dont fish this time of year. i dont fish every day anyways, being an nfl fan, why would i fish during the super bowl? when its dark out and really cold out...i mean i understand if you dont like football or only like watching your team, then it makes sense you wouldnt watch it. its just had to believe some would pass up the biggest game of the year for something they can do any other time Quote

Dang that means you may have seen the Eagles win a championship......lucky wretched Quote
Super User Raider Nation Fisher Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 Fishing. Unless the Raiders or Eagles are in it. Especially this year. Seeing as I can't stand Denver. I believe I will watch the Puppy Bowl on Animal Planet instead. Maybe I should do like all the NCAA football fans do. GO AFC West!! Quote

I live for my Raiders, and I hate Denver with a passion. So I would rather watch puppies play on a fake indoor field. Least it will put a smile on my face. Quote
Super User SirSnookalot Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 Dang that means you may have seen the Eagles win a championship......lucky wretched Your assuming I didn't fall asleep........................lol. IMO more than often the game itself does not live up to the hype, the playoffs are more fun to watch, but I'm going to watch anyway. I did prefer when the playoffs were televised starting Saturday at 12:00 instead of the later times as it's done now. Quote
Super User Grizzn N Bassin Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 I would go fishing but its dark here by that time and everything is frozen. Even tho i do like watching football its not really a big deal if i watch the super bowl or not. Like others said before its a fam and friend kinda deal which is fun. Quote
Super User Oregon Native Posted January 24, 2014 Author Super User Posted January 24, 2014 Gosh...didn't realize it was at 6:30. Well if the kids come over I'll put something on the BBQ and if not may have to go fishing first. May go to church sat night if weather looks like it might warm a bit on Sunday. Tight Lines Quote

Super User K_Mac Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 This is an interesting thread to me. It confirms that for some the Super Bowl is part of the American culture. For them the thought of not watching is "hard to believe". For others, like me, it is just another game in an endless chain of games. I do have a little interest in seeing if Manning can finish a storybook season, so will probably have the game on. Now if the choice was game 7 of a Cardinals World Series, I might fish with one eye on my smartphone... Quote
Super User Teal Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 Superbowl comes but once a year. I can fish any other day...or night. And whenever my beloved Panthers ever make the big dance again, its an absolute yes, I won't be anywhere else but on my couch watching the game... Hell Ill probably be watching the full day of pre game. 1 Quote

Least it will put a smile on my face. personally, if i hated the broncos, i would get more satisfaction watching the seahawks beat them...and yes, im going for the seahawks as i attended NC State University like Russell Wilson before he transferred to Wisconsin Quote

Super User Oregon Native Posted January 24, 2014 Author Super User Posted January 24, 2014 Looks like Sunday will be fishing a local tourney to benefit a young girl who is having some medical difficultys. So hope the weather is at least in the fourtys!! Then will warm up on couch to watch the game. Tight Lines Quote
tholmes Posted January 24, 2014 Posted January 24, 2014 Fishing for sure, especially this year. I don't care about the Seahawks and I despise the Donkeys, so I won't be watching even if the weather is bad. Tom 1 Quote
Super User tomustang Posted January 24, 2014 Super User Posted January 24, 2014 Who wouldn't want to watch Denver slaughter seattle? 3 Quote
Super User Oregon Native Posted January 24, 2014 Author Super User Posted January 24, 2014 I can hardly wait for all the reasons why Seattle beats Denver. Quote
