SANTA CLARA, CA
Area man Jake Loewen, 41, is really gearing up for the Super Bowl this weekend to distract himself from thinking about all the messed up things that have been going on lately.
“All I am thinking about right now is Chiefs vs. Patriots,” said Loewen. “In fact, I can’t imagine anything at all that might be more important.”
Loewen will be eating nothing but nachos for the next seven days and has decked out his TV room with gaudy football merchandise all in an attempt to prevent anything real or unpleasant from crossing his mind.
“And if that doesn’t work, I’m going to be binge watching The Night Manager: Season Two,” said Loewen. “Gotta have your priorities straight.”
In addition to blocking all social media content that isn’t about the end of this year’s NFL season, Loewen plans to get really fired up and form very strong opinions about the precise details of the big game.
“There’s are a lot of problems in the world right now,” said Loewen, “and it’s nice to know that all of them will be resolved next Sunday afternoon at Levi’s Stadium.
