I know when some people read this, that some folks will read it and think “well here’s Ol Lewis telling us this big windy tale”. But I swear to you that it happened just the way I’m going to tell you.

Last night was the Super Bowl – LIX. There was this rumor going around that Musk was going to do several commercials during the game giving earth shaking details that have been uncovered. Not wanting to miss that momentous happening, I decided that I would watch this big football spectacle of the year.

Know the big buildup to the game was well underway, I decided that I could take my iPad out by the hot tub and get everything set up and set through it. Now mind you I haven’t really watched a full game of any team since Jerry Jones bought the Cowboys and fired Tom Landry.

Now get this, I had never paired up the Bluetooth on this Hot Tub to any of my devices since the factory replaced it a few months ago. As I started working on that I became frustrated and hollered to Ron Jr to come help me. We evidently got everything sinked up so I had the pregame show in surround sound coming out of the speakers.

Ron left and went back in the house, where he was watching the television. I decided that that I couldn’t have my Super Bowl party without something to eat. My pellet grill was sitting there, as I had appropriated it to put the iPad on, due to the shelf on the end was the correct height for viewing.

I went to the freezer in the garage where I’ve got a big box of Lockhart Sausage stored for such an occasion. Once I had a bunch of links and other fixins on a big tray I headed back out and got things going.

I listened to this people, all recognizable folks drone on and on about the upcoming game. I know some people are all over spending time having all this broken down ten ways to Sunday, but for me it’s just noise. Every once in a while something amusing would catch my attention. But I’m more into sitting in the tub pecking away on my iPhone hoping to come up with something clever to write about.

The sausage finally got ready so I texted Ron Jr to come join me. With the pregame still going on, we sat a chatted. He and I are almost identical on the pro football deal. But he too was interested in what we may see out of Musk’s DOGE commercials.

We kept talking about our disappointment that the game hadn’t shown us any thing we were interested in.

After a while I reached over was fiddling with my iPad and refreshed the screen, being sure that we were completely up to the minute on the broadcast.

When I click the game was in progress. The Score was 34 – 6, in favor of the Eagles. It was about mid ways through the 4th quarter. You see what I had been watching was Fox Sports 4K instead of the Fox Affiliate.

Evidently Fox Sports 4K was regurgitating the afternoon’s broadcast.

Ron Jr had been watching the game inside the house and knew the game had been on for we over 2 hours and thought I was watching all that other stuff because the game was such a blowout.

Once I figured out what was happening I gathered up my stuff and went to bed.

This is the link to my FB describing my intentions for the night.

When I look back on last night, I’m thankful I didn’t put myself through the misery of watching that mess.
