THE TASTE OF CROW....IT'S MUCH LIKE CHICKEN

Last night was the mythical National Championship Game between USC and TEXAS. The media had been hyping up the matchup for weeks; The bar had a big promo set up to coincide with it and of course, yours truly was running off at the mouth, sharing my two cents with anyone who would listen, saying that this game would belong to USC in a rout.

Imagine my surprise when the game turned out to be a classic nailbiter, all the way to the last play of the game. And of course, the team that I promoted to the hilt, lost. I tip my hat to TEXAS, they played one hell of a game; I also tip my hat to MR. TANQUERAY and MEAN GENE for calling the game like it was. They predicted that it would be a close one and they were right. Kudos to them.

The atmosphere of the bar was one of a mini-game; full of fans of both teams. The one thing that I found interesting was that there were a LOT of chicks there for the game. And they were really into the game and not there to be seen. Another thing that I realized was that the combination of CARL'S CHEESESTEAKS, PIZZA or JACKSON HOLE BURGERS and beer is a lethal one. By halftime, the amount of gas being emitted throughout the bar was astronomical. I had to keep turning on the fan to circulate fresh air, while OPIE CUNNINGHAM would strategically administer blasts of air spray to combat against the foul odors. Ugh. There was a time where you never really noticed such odors due to the cigarette smoke in bars. But now that the cigarette ban has eliminated such a thing, you pick up on all kinds of smells, from strong pungent perfumes, to god-awful B.O. . You can't make this stuff up.

Oh, on a side note: If you had 69 1/2pts and the OVER, then you were the big winner, right MR. LOW-KEY?

I got an interesting text from our friend in FL., HASHBROWNIE. It seems she was doing a bit too much celebrating at the ORANGE BOWL the other night. So much celebrating that she broke a toe and didn't realize it until the next day. Bless her heart. Here's to a speedy recovery!

TONITE is "LITE NITE THURSDAYS", where all light beers (both bottle and drafts) are on special! SEXY BLONDE and the ITALIAN STALLION will be behind the stick and yours truly will be in the house as well.

Enjoy the day!
