Title: Super Stupor Bowl
Post by: montmil on January 22, 2014, 12:18:06 PM
Like, totally awesome, dudes n' dudettes.

It's interesting that the two States that have legalized recreational ganja are meeting pothead-to-pothead in the Big Bowl  [smiley=mad.gif]

New NFL rules say that all items people bring into a stadium must fit in a particular sized, clear plastic bag.

Coincidence?  I think n... I can't remember

The bag size is 16x16x8-inches. Didn't hear that it has to be clear plastic as they search 'em anyway. Gonna be colder'n a wench's tent on game day so they may end up doing body cavity searches for a select few. It is New Yerk. "OK youse guys from Colorado, form a line ova here and da Californicators on dis side."

I'd like to get the Snickers concession for half-time!

Back in the way back days, I lived in Norman, Oklahoma -Boomer Sooners- for a couple years. Ex was expecting our second son and I usually hit the only all-night grocery when she got hungry for some odd-ball food item.

Way too funny watching the stoners load up a cart with 50-75 bucks worth of candy, chips, candy, jerky, candy... Saw one dude just raking his arm along a shelf of not-so-healthy treats and collecting his munchies, well, most of 'em anyway, into the buggy.

Think Denver will prevail. Grass and all.

It might actually turn out to be a competitive game, after all.    But usually, we are watching it for the commercials.. :D

I don't think any grass will be allowed in New Jersey, maybe "A Bridge Too far" Chris Christie will shut down lanes on the bridge to New York just to spite 'em!

Bud Bowl. Weed Bowl. Fill a Bowl. Stoner Bowl. Super Stupor Bowl. Whatever you call it, the teams from Denver and Seattle are in it to win it! And so are cannabis consumers! The annual Super Bowl is always a great time for a few friendly wagers, and cannabis consumers are no exception. Happy to uphold this proud tradition, Colorado NORML and Washington NORML have made a little side bet on this historic game:

If the Denver Broncos win, WA NORML has agreed to dress in Bronco colors of blue and orange and sing Karaoke-style Colorado's (second) official state song "Rocky Mountain High" by John Denver. If the Seattle Seahawks win, CO NORML will do the same, but in Seahawk blue and green and singing "Purple Haze" by Jimi Hendrix, a native son of Seattle.

A video of the performance must be posted on the respective state chapter's web site, Facebook page and on YouTube for a minimum of one week, with an acknowledgment that the winning team's state is simply awesome.

The unfortunate irony is that, despite the legalization of recreational marijuana in Washington and Colorado, the NFL continues to ban its use among players, although it is not a performance enhancing drug. Both teams have each lost key players this season to marijuana-related suspensions. The Denver Broncos Von Miller, 2011 NFL defensive rookie of the year, Seattle Seahawks cornerback Walter Thurmond, and Seahawks cornerback Brandon Browner have all received suspensions for failing drug tests.

The NFL would be wise to be more open to marijuana use among players. Its value as a safer treatment than opiates for pain resulting from the brutality of the game, must be acknowledged. With concerns over repeat concussions and the resulting traumatic brain injury to players like Junior Seau, the league should be particularly interested in marijuana's potential to prevent long-term damage associated with brain injuries. Some NFL players might use cannabis for its medicinal benefits, but others may choose it to unwind as an alternative to alcohol, just as others might drink a beer or a martini. However, cannabis use doesn't have the same risks associated with mixing prescription drugs, particularly painkillers, and alcohol.

So while we celebrate this historic Super Doobie Bowl, cheering on our respective teams, and laughing about the irony of it all, let's not forget those players on and off the field whose employers will not allow them to consume a legal substance that has never had an associated death in all of recorded history.

Let the schwag talking begin!

BTW - BEER has been producing "Stupor Bowls" ever since the first game, I believe.

Well, that was the best Super Bowl ever! We usually just stay home and watch the game and cook up a few snacks. When the kids were home they might have a friend or two over. But with even the youngest away at college we agreed to go out to a local Sports Bar with some friends. When we got there we saw the contest announcement in the Specials printout: If either team ran the opening kickoff back for a touchdown everyone in the bar would split a prize. First half prize was $20,000 and the second half prize was $10,000. So when, just after halftime, Percy Harvin broke that tackle and ran the kick back for a touchdown the place went crazy! We all knew we had just won $10,000! Of course once you divide $10,000 by 200 it comes out to $50 each but still, we were winners! After a celebratory drink the manager came around and gave each person in the bar $50 cash. Thank you Binga's Wingas.


Oh, Malcolm Smith MVP? We voted for Percy Harvin.

Not since the O.J. Simpson chase has America been so disappointed in a slow, white Bronco. :D

Cheering for the Seahawks, all I can say now is Winner Winner Chicken Dinner.

I'm glad the Seahawks won... but I wish the Broncos had at least showed up to play. I enjoyed watching, but in the same way the spectators enjoyed watching "the games" at the Colosseum.

I finished putting my R65 back together.  Took it out for a test/ring break-in ride yesterday.  I wonder if my new heated grips will make riding at 10 degrees F any better.

Lucky Lou says, "The game wasn't that bad."

Nope. Not a bad game. Wasn't bad at all. [smiley=beer.gif]
