17 Weeks to the Super Bowl!
So we're in Jacksonville now, real travels to commence tomorrow. The next Super Bowl is apparently being held here. I wouldn't have known, except that every inch of available signage space is pointing it out. Seventeen weeks to the Super Bowl! Super Bowl 2005 in Jacksonville! Jacksonville welcomes the Super Bowl!
One football game, that will certainly include not a single team from this state, seems to be all that this town has to look forward to. It doesn't even have the hotel space--there are going to be people staying in Georgia to watch the game here. Too bad.
Anyway, the hotel is nice, there are a couple of bars nearby and I think one of them might have Game 4 on. It'll be fitting to finish the season this way--as Bart Giamatti said, "I wrote a few things this last summer, this summer that did not last, nothing grand but some things, and yet that work was just camouflage." I'll be watching my summer end here, amid the camouflage of another reality show.
