If you are an adult male in America, the way you spend Super Bowl Sunday probably says quite a bit about how your life is going…


ONE MAN’S EMAIL INVITATIONS TO HIS SUPER BOWL PARTIES OVER THE PAST FIVE YEARS

2004:

Dudes! As you know, the Super Bowl is right around the corner. We’re getting older now and I never want to lose touch so I think it’s more important than ever that we get together to celebrate the big game in style. You know I’ll take care of everything! We’re gonna kick it Old School baby!

Oh man, it’s funny because it’s true. I know everyone can’t wait to see our boy Squeef do a little Frank the Tank for us.

And I really know you can’t wait for never-ending food, my brand new big screen TV, tons of booze (of course) and most important of all, good times with good friends.

Come over any time after 3 and bring whoever – the more the merrier!

2005:

Hey, I’ve been getting a ton of emails from you guys about the Super Bowl. I’m glad everyone had such a good time last year.

I definitely want to do it again but may have to ask people to chip in a little. You know I love to treat, but, well it was just a little more than I expected. And I also assumed that when those German rugby dudes (whose friends were they again? Squeef? ) ordered that suckling pig that they were just joking about using my credit card.

So, I don’t know, maybe people can let me know if they can bring some chips or salsa or pizza or whatever. Or maybe everyone just give me 20 bucks and I’ll coordinate?

And if you want to invite someone else just give me a buzz first.

Other than that, get ready to enjoy my big screen TV, tons of booze (of course) and most important of all, good times with good friends.

2006:

It’s that time of year, dudes!!! Super Bowl!!! I’m sorry so many of you couldn’t make it last year. It’s too bad, because it was a blast – just ask the wild man Squeef.

Speaking of that, I haven’t been able to replace my big screen TV yet, but don’t worry, those chicks from next door are going to wheel theirs over here. You’ll like their boyfriends. They’re good dudes.

And, as always, I know you’ll really like the tons of booze (of course) and good times with good friends.

P.S. Yes, the hot chick without the boyfriend (Jill) will be here, but don’t even think about it. I hooked up with her last week and she is a dirty, dirty girl. Yes, THAT one. I think you remember all the stories I told you.





2007:

Fellas,

Jill and I would love to have you over to our place to watch the Super Bowl. We’re eating dinner at her parents’ house, but should be back in time for the half time show (Prince!) if you want to swing by for coffee and dessert.

Just a reminder, please respect our home and opt for a rain check if you’ve been drinking heavily. Squeef, I love you man, but after what you did at our wedding reception, well, Jill would just…just be cool, okay?

Here’s to good times with good friends!

Daniel





2008:

Hey, Squeef and I are gonna watch the game at our place. Come over if you want.
