So I'm guessing most of you watched the Super Bowl on Sunday night right? Well I'm also guessing that my experience was a bit different than yours, but still awesome!
Being that I'm 14 hours ahead of Chicago time that means a nice early Monday morning football wake up! There is a bar here that was getting the game due to an international satellite service. Therefore the bar opened at 7AM. We got there at 7:05 and it was nearly full! First thing I noticed was a couple people with bottle service. In this case it meant two guys sharing a bottle of Captain Morgan at 7 in the morning!
The bar was serving Bloody Mary's as well as a full breakfast buffet. I later spoke to the owner (the gentleman in the second photo with his manager in the Giants jersey) who is from Chicago and found out he had been cooking all night long! He never went home.
The next difference after the fact of watching the game in the morning was the commercials. Everyone in the states enjoys the commercials right? Since this was satellite we didn't get what you had. We literally had the same 4-5 commercials through the entire game. One for Alaska (powdered filled milk), one for JVC, one for the sports channel and one for Rambo 4. One group of guys got so fed up with the monotony of it that they made a drinking game from it. Every time the Alaska commercial came on they toasted and drank! It was quite funny.
Anyway the top photo shows the sports bar that all looks pretty normal, until you see the Chinese New Year decorations everywhere! Congrats to the Giants fans on a huge win!

I'm glad you clarified who that is in the picture. At first glance I thought it was you with a giants fan. China has been rough on you!
