Today was Super Bowl Sunday, which means a lot to me, since I’m a big football fan. This year we noticed more and more ads for Super Bowl parties here in Mexico City. I also noticed that they were showing the big game on the big screen in the movie theaters.
We went to a Super Bowl party at our church. They had sort of an “NFL Experience” type thing where they invited people to come and do different “American football” drills, had competitions, and then watched the game. We didn’t stay to watch the game there. We prefer to watch it at home.
I think American football is getting more popular here, especially in our part of Mexico City. I’m pretty sure that Mark Sanchez had something to do with that. It’s amazing how many Jets fans there are in Mexico City now that he’s their quarterback.
By the way, the Saints cheerleaders were in a mall here in our part of town earlier in the season. Here’s a quick video of them:
