I kinda hope there is a blizzard of the century with 6 foot snows and so on ... we could have the "snow plow part deux"!

On that note, I am officially for the New York Super Bowl, because I see 3 upsides.

1. All the potential misery this could cause all the VIP's, bigshots, dignitaries, celebrities---all the dipthongs that have hijacked our Super Bowl. priceless! Celebrities, particularly will be pained if they have to wear so much clothing they cant be recognized. They'll walk down concourses with no one to flash pictures and fuss over them. I'd love it.

2. The whole stupid ridiculous overblown Up With People (dating myself there, but its always the visual for me) /500 Rockettes dancing, Laser Light show and Halftime Extravaganza might be cancelled.

3. not to mention all the alterations to the Official Pregame Hypefest Carnival, Livestock Show, & Circus. People with no more concern other than self-promotion might decide to stay home and drink hot cocoa.

---which could potentially leave the Super Bowl as nothing but a football game to decide the champions of the NFL.

Wouldnt that be great?

All very good points indeed Mike.

Yes, I remember Up With People also, all four times (Superbowls 10, 14, 16,and 20).

oh thats just frightening.

I have an Up With People album cover I found in a resale shop here in my studio as a joke. The kids here have no idea.

Next: we're gonna revisit the show, "Real People."
or..... maybe "The Gong Show."

Wasn't Mr. Green Jeans on the Gong Show?

No, Mr. Green Jeans was on Captain Kangaroo.

Hey, somebody tell me what Statler Brothers song mentions the Capn.

That'd be "Flowers on the Wall" circa 1966.

agree! what other city can you walk from the stadium to all over the city? Most stadiums are not even close to the city.

If my memory is correct, it would go something like this...


counting flowers on the wall...
that don't bother me at all.
Playing solitaire is all...
with a deck of 51...
smoking cigarettes and watching Captain...Kangaroo (in my deepest voice)
Now don't tell me...I've nothing to do...

But I'm the official historian on Shirley Jean Burrell...eh...or something like that. Moms had a Statler Brother's Greatest Hits Eight Track tape when I was just a lad...LOL

wow.. thats crazy, SF.

CLEVELAND......hello......the only football city that has never held a super bowl or had a participant in the super bowl

OR ...CANTON

yes. I agree Canton. If there were justice in the world, and we insisted on having a Winter Storm Warning Super Bowl--- Cleveland should get it, not New York.

threadjack trivia: I see yall are stumped. here's a clue. It was a live recording at a rather large rodeo.

Re: Superbowl XLVIII Location Poll
 
Well, let's see.....was it a rodeo in....hmmmm...maybe in Hum..... no can't be. Was it in Hou.....nah. Can't think of a place that has a large rodeo.

skymike 06-02-2010 08:02 AM

Re: Superbowl XLVIII Location Poll
 
nono... dont tell me.... let me guess.... could it be????

Actually, Yat, most people dont know this, but a lot of major cities have rodeos, even San Francisco. (jokes withheld) The biggest event in the sport is in Calgary. Of course we are more familiar with the PRCA Finals, which is Rodeo's "super bowl" in Vegas.

You got it, though. Charlie Pride recorded his cover of Hank's "Kaw Liga" at the Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo in ? 1969? Could be '68. You can hear the crowd in the recording. I was there, as a little kid, and vividly remember the Astrodome that night.
