Well this is lame (I have to go to a SB party) (1 Viewer)

If you and someone else are both eyeing that last buffalo wing (or whatever they are serving), and he's a step ahead of you to the platter, just deck him to the floor, look around innocently, and point out that no flag was thrown.

Of course, you shouldn't actually do that, but I am still laughing minutes later.

 

[AARPSaint]

This is a very good idea.

If sh

I was fully committed to not watching the game. I don’t care who wins and I don’t want to watch it. I have zero interest and watching the game - that we should have been in - would just suck.

I don’t live in New Orleans anymore, so I’m not surrounded by Saints fans. And we moved into a new neighborhood less than two years ago - still making friends and all that business. Friday night my wife tells me we got invited to a Super Bowl party - and we’re going.

So it’s basicslly a social obligation that I have to go and most likely have to watch this damn game.

Any suggestions?

Try to get out of it, but if she makes you go you better at the very least negotiate some sex into the equation.

Go to the party but don’t watch the game.... lol ?

I’m pretty sure it’s not that kind of party.

So it's not a slinger party?

And I'm sure he meant from the wife.

Bring a tray of jello shots and a black and gold funnel. Get jiggy with it.

I would have laughed in the wife's face and told her have fun.

I’ve done this!

I guess I'm lucky. My wife has reminded me, several times this week and today that we are ABSOLUTELY NOT watching the game or going to any social events where the game could be seen, heard, or even noticed.

I got me a keeper!

Suggestions? Man up and just say no.

You could always have a box of this and honestly claim you can't leave your bathroom.

Hang out with the kids at the party they'll probably be having fun with crayons on the walls, you can write with them Saints Were Robbed.

Sorry but telling my wife and my four and five year-olds that want to go to the party that I’m not going because my team got hosed isn’t “manning up.”

We got invited to one also by my best friend. They came over last night for supper and when they were leaving, I reiterated to his wife that we would not attend their party. My wife had told her that a few nights ago. She told me to still come but don't watch. I still told her that we weren't going to watch this SB. And my wife is in my corner. Dang I love her! I'm sorry that I can't give you any sound advice. The only thing that I can tell you is that you do have to live with your wife, so you may have to take one for the team. Maybe she can compromise and agree to leave at the half. That way you only have 1 1/2 hours to avoid watching. Good luck.

Well you typed up a wimpy story and asked for suggestions. Sorry you didn’t like it.

We all have to move on with our lives at some point. When I have gone to these parties, I spend most of my time watching the game, but I have always noticed that most people don't do that. They treat these more as a social gathering experience than a group game watching experience. So use this time to really get to know some of your new neighbors. Who knows there might be another miserable Saints fan there who doesn't want to watch the game either. I guarantee you won't be the only person there who doesn't care about the outcome of the game.
