Mardi Gras...Fat Tuesday
( Sung to the tune of The Beverly Hillbillies)...I didn't write that...
Well today is Fat Tuesday and I bet'cha know the drill.
They said show us yer boobs..come on..give us a thrill.
I said a handful of beads ain't worth going to jail.
But I did it anyways...Guess I'm goin' to hell.
For beads that is ..plastic beads..really cheap beads
The moral of this story is always sad for us rubes.
That Big Easy vacation... just went down the tubes.
But I bet'cha next year I'll be up there with the Krewe.
Throwin out the beads and watchin you do it too!
Ridin' the float that is..tossing beads..really cheap plastic beads

Superbowl Sunday...
Super Bowl Trivia
At every Super Bowl, two Lombardi trophies are present in the unfortunate event that one is accidentally destroyed in celebration.
Super Bowl day is the second-largest U.S. food consumption day, following Thanksgiving.
Mike Ditka and Tom Flores are the only two men to win a Super Bowl both as a player and a coach.
The first Super Bowl game was played on January 15, 1967, as a playoff between the AFL and NFL champions. The game was called the "World Championship of Professional Football"
Each Super Bowl trophy is handcrafted by Tiffany & Co. master artisans at their workshop in Parsippany, New Jersey, and is valued at $12,500.
The Super Bowl is one of the most-watched U.S. television broadcasts of the year, attracting many companies to spend millions of dollars on commercials.
Each Super Bowl trophy takes approximately four months and 72 man-hours to create.
The name 'Super Bowl' came from AFL founder and Kansas City Chiefs owner Lamar Hunt. He had jokingly referred to the proposed interleague championship as the "Super Bowl" after seeing his daughter playing with a toy called a Super Ball. The ball is now on display at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.
The original Super Bowl XXXVI logo was re-designed following the September 11, 2001 attacks.
The last true day game (one which ended before local sunset) was Super Bowl XI in January 1977.
