Super Bowl Sunday


If you're like most people, you are either going to attend,  or are hosting a Super Bowl Party this Sunday. Do you have a favorite team for the big game? I don't have a dog in this fight; my team, the Giants, played like a bunch of Girl Scouts in the playoffs (sorry if I offend any Girl Scouts). 
 
Most restaurants find Super Bowl Sunday to be a waste of time to open. Now don't get me wrong. There are a lot of neighborhood taverns and sports bars that will due exceptionally well. And I'm sure the chain restaurant won't feel much of a pinch. 

But local, independent, white table cloth places like "Carmine's" usually don't draw a crowd on the greatest game day in football. The  only way that we'll see a lot of traffic is if:

a) The game is a blowout and everyone would rather be somewhere else.
b) The commercials really suck.
c) The football widows decide that they don't want to cook OR clean up.
