I just got back from the only sports bar here in Bocas. The place was totally packed (remember this is the tropice, so it was totally open air) Somehow I got a seat at the bar. On both sides of me were Eagles fans, six of them. I think the oldest was 32, all surfers. The whole rest of the bar were for the Patriots, at least that's what it seemed. Being the "old guy" but also making sure they knew I surfed, they totally gave me the up-most respect. Not being a pro football fan, college is all I care about, but having in the past a soft spot for the Eagles, I joined in. What a game! Two were from USC(University of South Carolina), which I really had fun with that, as you can understand. But, when both Jefferson (SC commit who ended up a Gamecock) and Nelson had great games, we put our differences aside and high-five'd our way into lasting friendship.
When the Eagles finally won, we were all over the moon partying. Not one of them had a dry eye. They were all texting family and friends, hooting and hollering the whole time. After three celebratory shots of tequila, I dragged my ass out of there.
What a lucky time I had!
Just wanted to share that before I pass out. LOL!!!
Fight on!
