Superb Owl

I hear there is a viewing event of the Superb Owl on TV today! I had no idea that bird watching was so popular, but even the grocery stores are selling food and beverages intended for people to consume while watching the Superb Owl. I'm not sure what network is airing the televised event, but I'm sure we can find it. Somehow chicken wings seem impolite to eat while watching another bird, but there seems to be a lot of places promoting them. Do people eat the owl? Are the chicken wings merely a proxy for the owl wings? (Ok, I know it's actually the Super Bowl, but I've been so out of touch lately that I don't even know who is playing. Maybe I'll make wings and 7 layer dip and we can watch the halftime show today).

Now, I want 7 layer dip! I don't have thé ingredients! Not going to town as it's -35°C and the car isn't plugged in.

Also, having grown up in an area that got cold and snow, I understand what you mean about the car not being plugged in. Gotta warm up that engine!

I remember when the Eagles won and I said, “What, there was something that band HASN’T won?”

As far as I know, they have not won the Stanley Cup.

@spiderdust Too bad, they could use a cup with the bowl.

I didn't know that Superb Owl was a species, Barn Owls and such I know of.

It's a misspelling of Super Bowl.

I heard it's National Owl day. When I read the article about it, I didn't connect the dots. Your post brought it all into focus. It's the Kansas City Chiefs and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. CBS.

Enjoy your snacks and the halftime show. I stopped watching the NFL back in 2016. I'm waiting for the Australian Open to begin at 10 EST, tennis is the only sport Mike and I follow anymore.

I bet they do, they eat bats, why not owls? Although you take away all those feathers there is not meat on a owl. Maybe people be like not even worth the time.

Heh. Good one. I watched part of the Superb Owl, but tried to be respectful by eating mostly popcorn.

I watched it only because I have grown up with football loving men. You didn't miss much except a couple of good commercials. We had pizza.

@spiderdust I should have made my super nachos, but was stuck in the house due to snow.

I thought about pizza, but we had plenty of food without it. The kids finished off the rest of the layer dip with tortilla chips for lunch today.
