Was it even intended to be political at all? Maybe that’s a better question to ask. By now, you know the one I’m talking about, right? The Clint Eastwood “It’s Halftime in America” commercial for Chrysler. I won’t say too much about this, mainly because I want to hear what you think in the comment section below. However, I will tell you this…
Come Sunday, many of us will gather around the television set to watch the Super Bowl. Some of us love this event because of the snacks involved (mmm, chicken wings!), some people want to see the latest commercials and some of us are suckers for the half-time show. Then there are those who will actually watch and care about the game. But don’t make assumptions about who falls into which category based on gender! According to several articles bouncing around the Web, the old stereotype that women can’t tell their quarterback from their running back has been dead for awhile.
Look, I will admit it: I know absolutely nothing about football. I don’t know Peyton Manning from Eli Manning, and I only know who Tom Brady is because of the famous women he has babies with. But nevertheless, I am psyched for Sunday’s Super Bowl between the Colts and the Saints. Even though I had to look up just now who was playing, the Super Bowl will be fun. Why? Because of Super Bowl parties.
