This is pretty spectacular. To be in a city whose team has just won its sixth! Superbowl. The fireworks have just ended now. Horns are still being honked. People are screaming, waving their terrible towels and hi-fiving everyone they come in contact with. I've been told everyone will be best friends for the next month. Schools tomorrow are on two-hour delays. The news is showing footage from Oakland where the University is and the streets are packed with people celebrating. 

I watched the game with BART and some friends. I'm pretty sure no one breathed during the last few minutes of the game. It was very intense. I know now why everyone has a terrible towel here. They are very handy to have during the game. One can ball it up in their hands or pretend its a paper bag and breath into it or swing it above your head or simply fold it in your lap. I don't know how I ever watched a football game without one. BART made some tasty lil sausages. It was a resounding success.

Ohhh...The Office should be starting here soon. It was on at least an hour delay due to the game.
