    I mean, if I were the DM there is a non-zero chance that the cat is in fact a dragon.

    Better keep making offerings. Including that fresh fish you just caught.

    (Also, there’s a non-zero chance it’s just a cat who is now a familiar. Because you fed it. And it’s going to loot all your fish and steak and stuff.)

    So. My parents used to have a dachshund named Tootsie. Towards the end, she was blind as a bat and going just as deaf. (Though that may have been selective.)

    Like that last weekend before they took her to the vet for the whole “we think she’s gone fully blind,” thing, I had made carnitas tacos. It’s a fan favorite. People were walking into the living room to watch whatever was on (football?).

    Any how, nephew bumps my dad, dad drops a bit of carnitas.

    Tootsie, who was chilling by the fire place went from dozy dog to rug shark scarfing up the bit before it ever hit the floor,

    This is her- and one of my last photos of her being all “Hai!!!”

    Yeah. So for a watch party, people are going to be hitting the finger food, right? Grazing is how people eat at these kinds of things.

    Keep in mind recommended serving size would be 4-6 ounces- about one drumstick; but again, it’s kinda hard to graze a drumstick. That’s full on entree material. Two, if they’re small (these look large.)

    I’d suggest something like buffalo wings, set out in a crock pot or slow cooker, so they’re ready to be grazed on their terms. (If you do go for drumsticks, well, they’re gonna have to be kept warm. If you don’t have something like a giant slow cooker, or a catering warming pan, that means the oven, which means they’re liable to be over looked.)

    that didn’t take long.

    I mean, seriously. You’re aware that after a 49er’s game that turned violent, Eagles added jail cells - oh I’m sorry, the proper term is “holding cell”- to deal with all that… “passion”. and… no. I don’t mean a holding room that locks. they had full on jail cells. and before that, Veteran’s Field didn’t just have jail cell- it had a full on court room.

    There’s also those incidents with the D-cell batteries. Plural. Totally normal fan-rivalry things to do. totally.

    then there’s that time that eagle’s fans beat up Cheif Zee (redskin’s super fan.)- broken legs, ribs, and other injuries.

    And what the fuck did Millie ever do to get harassed by crowds of phillie fans? she was a 90+ year old grandmother for crying out loud. the only thing she did to get the attention was get recognized for being an old vikings fan. Even then you had to drag out your geriatric fan and that wasn’t enough?

    sure. Not all eagle’s fans are total assholes. most fans “aren’t that bad”. But you do realize, when other teams say the same thing, they’re talking about people that are singing a little too loud, or shouting obnoxious jingles or maybe they just got a little drunk. (I’m not kidding about packer’s fans drinking all the beer.)

    I dunno.

    But I work in contract security. When the Super Bowl came to Minneapolis, it was one of the worst nights of My working-life.

    I was walking through a bar to touch bases with their management (the bar was tenants of my client,) and a philly fan broke a bottle off and tried to shank me. That was the night before. All I did to provoke it? Walk behind him.

    Another incident the night before, 3 guys were kicking the shit out of an oldish guy while two howling wives egged them on.

    They were late twenties early thirties, their victim was a late-50’s black guy.

    Their only “reason”? He was wearing a Vikings cap.

    Over all, the only night that we had more arrests happen was when the city decided to set up a soft checkpoint for a trump rally with a day’s notice to my client next door.

    When ever I start listing incidents other Philly fans are quick to say “no we’re just passionate!”

    Green Bay is passionate. They dress up in their cosplay and drink all the beer then go home. (Though, probably some of the best tailgating you’ve ever seen…) they don’t beat the shit out of people.
