What's a Fun Thing to do While Everyone Else is Watching the Super Bowl?
I have no interest, though I may TiVo it so I can see the ads.

Maybe go skiing?

3. Lingerie Bowl?
:shrug:

You could go to the park and use the basketball courts without all the jcks around. Or, run errands while the streets are empty - heck, if you live in a rabid football town you can go out and drive on the sidewalk for a while...

27. When is the Super Bowl? Seriously, I don't know
If it's this Sunday, I'll be at a performance of the opera Faust.

In Portland, the local Borders always had an alternative event for non-football fans. I don't know if they still do.

39. I'll probably go to the library

Is the Stupor Bowl played during the day or the evening?
