So the Super Bowl is just around the corner. Many of you may be just like me. I would have absolutely no idea when the kick off commenced if it weren't for a few good friends that host the event every year. Whether your enjoyment lies in rooting for your favorite team, screaming at the opposition, or in the simple things like beer and seven layer dip one thing is for sure; we all enjoy this barbaric American tradition. But, has anyone ever stopped to think about the hosts? They are the ones who willingly invite you into their home. They calm down noise disturbed neighbors. They set up and clean up after even the most foul of football fumbles. They even keep the peace amongst rival teams sure to engage in unnecessary roughness. Shouldn't we all at least say thank you?
Well here is a quick and easy idea to show your hosts just how much their annual hospitality means. Start a new tradition in 2009. Instead of arriving in your team jersey with beer in one hand and the boyfriend of moment in the other take some time to do a little pre-planning of your own. Contact a few of your friends also attending and pool together a little cash. Stop by Trader Joe's, my favorite shopping destination, and pick up a gift card. Think about it, 5 bucks for 5 people is a thoughtful way to say hey we appreciate you or.....sorry about last year! Either way no matter who takes the bowl you are still a winner!
