Superbowl bound

My brother talked me into driving out there the Friday before and come home the Monday after. Gonna cost me bigtime, I'll have to do $2500 in labor for him since the tix were 5 grand. Ticket brokers rob people. The tix are in the end zone but we are in the building. I've always wanted to go to a Patriots Superbowl someday and this is my chance. I just dread that it has to be against those NY Giants
He says we are gonna have a blast and we better, work is slow and I have no money to be owing him that much for one ticket to one game, but he's my brother and we will have a great time I'm sure. He reserved a room 70 miles away so it didn't cost a fortune, also bought a parking space already for 50 bucks. I can't wait

It's gonna be an epic game I'm sure

Sweet.... Now get to work on getting an invite to the DirectTV party on Saturday night! That's the one to target... 2nd would be Maxims, then Commissioner's party 3rd. Tony Siragusa and the NFL have real good tailgate parties before the game. Call in any and all favors to see if you can get in. You are already going to be there, and already have a game ticket. You were a season ticket holder before, right? Call Pats' office to see if they have any party passes... Be sure to tell them you already have game ticket, because that is whay they are getting bombed for with requests....And don't shy away from contacting your "client" somehow.. He won't have a clue, but his ex or secretary might...

Lucky bastage. Have fun Bruce. Can you catch a football? How's your YAC average? They could use you if Gronk ain't 100%. Take plenty of pictures i wanna see them at the plugest. A friend of mine asked me to go down with him to superbowl 36, no tickets, no place to stay, i passed on it. He went down with another friend of ours and not only managed to get tickets, he ended up on the Patriots DVD.
If you have it, check it out, he's the one who puts his arms in the air to celebrate Tebucky Jones picking up a loose ball near the endzone and running it back for a td, only to have it called back on a holding penalty. Then puts his hands to his face when it was called back. Full screen shot of him, no mistaking it's Brian. Another lucky bastage. He came back with some stories, wish i would of gone. Hope they pull it off.

Just spoke with Steve, Slip's brother... They were 40 miles from the Indiana border in Pennsylvania, and Slip was driving like a madman! Gave them a place to check out as they don't have a hotel for tonight. They are some excited!

Enjoy your time in Indy.
Don't think you are going to enjoy the outcome of the game though.
