SUPER BOWL WEEKEND

It's amazing what you notice when you sit back and just observe. February 5th the Saturday night before the big Superbowl Sunday I went to a pre-party / get together at a lounge in Brooklyn N.Y. The smell of BBQ and buffalo wings lingered as i walked in noticing all of the black, green, white and Gold on the walls, tables, and clothes people had on. The energy was great a bunch of people laughing engaging in conversations  about the Pittsburgh Steeler's and the green bay Packers. I took a seat in the middle of the lounge, I could hear "Black and Yellow" by Wiz Khalifa play lowly in the back round. Lights were dimmed, there was about 100 people. I could hear the group of 4 guys next to me making bets on tomorrows game..."I got 50 your boys are gonna loose"..."WHATT nah i want 100 bucks when the steelers win boyy!" ESPN played on the flat screens surrounding the lounge, recaps of the teams were being showed and highlights of the best players along with predictions. People at the bar seemed to be more focused on the T.V, if something they didn't like was said they would all take there right fist bang it on the bar counter and suck there teeth in unison. People were so sure of there teams winning. You could see it in there face expressions, so intense eyebrows up in the air causing wrinkles in the middle of their heads, so sure of their selves ready to explain there cases to an fan of the opposing team. I for one never watched a game of football in its entirety but for some reason the energy of the room and all of the excitement felt by the people there got to me, and for the rest of the night i became a part of the noise.
