BbtL/Patriots Nation Super Bowl Roll Call

[Kevin Youkulele]

Redwood City, CA.  Hosting a couple friends from school and their families, serving wings, beer, and homemade apple cider.  I'm the only staunch Pats fan but no one else has a strong allegiance; my wife is conflicted because she grew up on the West Coast and has family in Seattle but I've more or less infected her with Patriotism.

 

[JokersWildJIMED]

Nashville Tennessee, watching with wife, daughter, and dog, while texting to my son who is away at college.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Ashland, OR
Me the the Mrs
She was in her hoodie and lucky socks at 7:30 this morning

 

[Sleepy108]

Anniston Alabama

 

[Scriblerus]

In the South End. Watching the game solo. Win. Big.

 

[Lockdown]

Lowell, MA. @ the dorms at UMass Lowell with friends.

 

[topps148]

Up on the great divide in Silver City, NM, hoping that It's all downhill from here (for the Seahawks)

 

[Soxaholic]

Kittery, ME. Watching with equally die-hard neighbor/friend. Told other friends to not come over. Can't have any distractions.

 

[Beomoose]

Seattle, WA with about 150-200 Pats Fans at an event space in Belltown.

 

[Huntington Avenue Grounds]

Fanwood, NJ with my wife, son, daughter and Brother-in-law.  Wearing my had around town and ran into more Pats fans around here the past 5 days than I ever imagined.  

 

[steeplechase3k]

Portland, OR.

Alone unless one of my housemates who don't shut up during sporting events and who doesn't care about the game is here, then I'll be sitting near an unconscious body.

 

[pokey_reese]

Eugene, Oregon. By myself at home, because I can't stand to be around a mix of Raider and Seahawks fans.

 

[MentalDisabldLst]

New York, NY.  Friend's party in Midtown East.  She (the hostess) initially planned on only a small gathering, but late enthusiasm saw about 6 people RSVP Yes yesterday who hadn't even replied.  So now we're bringing folding chairs, and she's setting up a second TV - the place is going to be a zoo.  A refuge for Pats fans.  She's from DC but she went to Brandeis and, like tens of thousands of imported students each year, fell in love with Boston sports teams.
 
Mabrowndog's chili is currently cooking to bring over.  Shit is very shortly getting real.

 

[Zupcik]

Denver, CO.  Should be up in Breck, but it snowed and was too worried about missing the game to drive up this morning.

 

[ekim colorwaterpit]

Almost exact same situation as Dr leather. Minnesota with my 2 youngest in Gronk and Brady jerseys. Not twins though, and we are having a few friends over.

[InsideTheParker]

Standing the whole time
 

Portland, Or

With my wife and 3 kids. (I can't watch BIG games with others). Standing the whole time. We all will be fully geared up and ready to have some fun. Go Pats!

Yeah, my husband really gets a work-out here in W Mass. He stood up and paced for almost the entire Ravens game. I hope that the Pats lead is so great you guys can snuggle down in your recliners. . .
 
p.s. I don't understand Super Bowl parties. How can you concentrate with all those people? It doesn't distract you?

 

[Laser Show]

Mission Hill with too many people coming over. Win this fucking thing.

 

[mascho]

Silver Spring MD. Wife and two kids (3 and 1). Also a stander. Stood for the entire Ravens game and didn't sit down until it got to 45-7 in the AFCCG.

 

[Deathofthebambino]

At home in Andover, MA.  Watching the game with only one other person, my almost 7 year old son.  I'm a season ticket holder and have promised him that next season will be the time that I finally bring him to a game.  I'm hoping it'll be the opener, and he can watch them hoist the fourth banner in person with me too.

 

[Al Zarilla]

So he's Yankees and Patriots? What about basketball and hockey? Does he have any favorites in those?

 

[bankshot1]

Short Hills NJ
 
this is a game to watch, I could go over to a buddie's bar and watch/drink, but there are too many Pats hater there.
 
Could get ugly
 
I want Seahawk blood today.

 

[DaveRoberts'Shoes]

Section 447, row 23, with my brother.

Last super bowl I got a single on stubhub and ended up in the family section with the Ninkoviches. Nice people. Bad game.

 

[Bigpupp]

Carlsbad, NM with my wife and son.

 

[Pandemonium67]

Escaped Tacoma WA for Tucson AZ, where I'll be watching with my brother and family, while my niece is at the game in her Bruschi 54 jersey. 
 
The 12th man can kiss my pasty white ass, and I hope all my friends back home in Sea/Tac have a lot of butthurt to deal with tomorrow.

 

[DJnVa]

Chesapeake, VA. No party for me, Pats 0-2 when I go. Watching at home.

 

[InsideTheParker]

So he's Yankees and Patriots? What about basketball and hockey? Does he have any favorites in those?

Nope. Only those two. His father took him to a Yankees game at age six and he imprinted. His father didn't care about football, so he didn't develop a loyalty until he was an adult. He is insanely more intensely a Patriots fan than he is a Yankees fan, btw. And I care about the Patriots mostly because he cares so much. Geaux, Pats!

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Corner of Arlington and Boylston at my in laws with my wife and three month old son. In laws and wife are Buffalonians and huge Bills fans so I'm praying for a win because I won't be able to listen to them trash the Pats.

Chili, nachos, and a roast on the menu.

Win it for my son, BB, and Brady

 

[Brohamer of the Gods]

Warwick, RI. Last two times I went to a friend's house, and we all know how that turned out. Previous three I was parked on my couch. I know what I must do.

 

[Matt Young's Control]

Falls Church, VA, watching alone. Threw my mother out of my house and the wife is soon to follow. Had to be done.

 

[fenwaypaul]

Boxborough MA, in the "temporary" postmarital apartment where I've lived for the past 20 years. My two oldest grandsons will probably be here, but they'll be too busy playing computer games to watch any football. WIn or lose, I'll take comfort as usual by wallowing in the game thread.

 

[Tharkin]

At my home in Dixmont, Maine, with my wife, kids, parents, and lots of good food and beer. The kids have been informed that if we win this game, we win "all of football" and are the champs. They are stoked, I expect nearly a full quarter of rapt attention to the game. Maybe more if there are enough dramatic-looking tackles.

 

[kenneycb]

New York, NY.  Friend's party in Midtown East.  She (the hostess) initially planned on only a small gathering, but late enthusiasm saw about 6 people RSVP Yes yesterday who hadn't even replied.  So now we're bringing folding chairs, and she's setting up a second TV - the place is going to be a zoo.  A refuge for Pats fans.  She's from DC but she went to Brandeis and, like tens of thousands of imported students each year, fell in love with Boston sports teams.
 
Mabrowndog's chili is currently cooking to bring over.  Shit is very shortly getting real.

Especially once you eat some of that chili.

 

[TomTerrific]

Ed Hillel, Hell, watching with my peeps.

 

 
That you, Clint?

 

[grsharky7]

Berlin, PA going to a party, changing it up from the last two where I bunkered down and watched solo.

 

[Ralphwiggum]

Needham, MA. At home with wife and all four kids. My 9 year old son is (semi) interested for the first time. Hoping we watch #4 together tonight and it turns him into a die hard like his old man.

 

[Vandalman]

Swansea, MA, with the wife and older son. Wife refuses to wear NE gear due to jinx factor.

 

[Rosey Ruzicka]

Nazareth, PA, I will just be getting home from coaching my son's hockey practice a little before game time, so no big party for us this year.  My son and I will be watching together and hopefully I will have a good reason to let him stay up late.

 

[SoPawHurst47]

Burbank, CA. Formerly from central Mass. Small crew of friends at our place, couple Vikes fans, couple Packers fans, couple no-horse-in the race types too. Chow is Mexican, party pack from Sharkeys. Beer n wine, maybe lil bourbon. Let's do this Pats Nation. Seal the deal!

 

[sonoitasoxfan]

In the high grasslands of Sonoita, AZ.

 

[Mugsy's Walk-Off Bunt]

Staten Island, NY. Currently at the gym, surrounded by dim bulbs staring down my patriots gear, which I'm wearing with pride and fury.

 

[RoyHobbs]

Berlin, PA going to a party, changing it up from the last two where I bunkered down and watched solo.

 
Same deal here. No more in-house watching: headin' to a bar for the first time. Good, loud vibes (and the drowning out of stoopid NBC commentary) welcome.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

San Francisco, CA, out on the avenues, a bit west of OFT and fair bit north of Mr. Zarilla and the other posters here down on the peninsula.

If the Patriots win, there may be trouble in my neighborhood. And by trouble, I mean there may be traffic as all the casual fans leaving local superbowl parties, where they dined on kale salad and no-carb snacks, get trapped in traffic in their Teslas, Priuses (Priusi?!?!) and Smart Cars. I will go outside and laugh at them.

 

[kelpapa]

Johnstown, Colorado at my house. By myself. I had a super bowl party last time the Pats were in, and it was awful dealing with everyone while trying to watch the game. I just want to be by myself for this game. My wife won't even be home for it.

 

[TomTerrific]

At the same damn SB party in Wayland, MA I've been going to for 15 years, with one year off when I went to Jacksonville. BTW, that place was completely flooded by Iggles fans, so I wouldn't worry the large contingent of Seattle fans this time.
 
Party typically has 40-50 people, mostly Jewish, mostly Pats fans, with a few Yankees-Giants fans who show up for god knows what reason. We all know who they are.
 
Anxiety slowly building, but I'm mostly feeling good. If they were playing the Giants again I would be a f**king mess.

 

[Buster Olney the Lonely]

Atlanta, GA. Sick all weekend. Going to rest a little more and then rally at 6.

 

[MarcSullivaFan]

 
Holla at ya boy over here in Fishers... keep the faith.

If they win, I'll be the guy you see on Channel 13 at 11 streaking "downtown" Carmel in nothing but a Pats' Pom Pom hat.

Stay strong brother!

 

[Icculus]

Jackson, WY. Just me and my roomate, don't want to deal with people until afterwards.

 

[geoduck no quahog]

From inside a paper bag.

 

[blueguitar322]

Charlotte, NC. Watching by myself in a padded room under supervision by a team of psychologists.
