Yeah! Sports Team won!

Super Bowl Sunday Edition!

Sunday afternoon was the Super Bowl but it was very different this year.  A stadium that was nearly empty but millions of people gathered and watched from their homes.  Now, after today will we see another surge of covid cases?  Maybe not as high like post-Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's but no doubt we will.  With vaccines being given out since those other holidays, not everyone has gotten them yet.  So, though it was a time of gathering, just not one for this year.  I hope everyone took precautions and we don't see a surge again.  But congrats pro-team that won the sporting event!

Weekly Update:
One-way means you can only go one-way on that street, right?  Or did I miss something?  There is this parking lot in a shopping area I go to sometimes and they have in the corner a 3 row parking area that each row is one-way.  They have arrows painted on the ground, signs that say "One Way" and of course other signs that say "Do Not Enter."  But what happens?  Yep, people ignore all three things and go down the lane the wrong way.  Now the lanes of the parking lot are barely wide enough to fit two cars side-by-side but you can also tell it's only way one because all the parking spots are angled in the way you would drive the down the road.  Just amazes me how people ignore 3 marked/posted signs, the angle of cars and why the car coming in the opposite direction is in the middle of the lane, because they are going in the right direction!

At the movies:

Holding the #1 spot for a 2nd week is "The Little Things" with 2.1 million extra and now shy of 10 mil cume but likely will get there in a week or two.  Still at #2 is "The Croods: A New Age" with another 1.8 mil and slowly gaining on the 50 mil mark.  Up a notch to #3 is "The Marksman" with 1 mil and also just shy of 10 mil.  Drop down to #4 is "Wonder Woman 1984" with 905k and just now past 40 mil, unlikely to go too much further.  Rounding off the top 5 is "News of the World" with 400k and slowly dropping off.
