This one's for Pervis...
About 20-25 of us just finished watching the Colts win the Super Bowl at our home. What a great time…what a great victory…(sorry to my friends in Chicago). We hooked up the video projector and watched it on a screen about 8 foot by 8 foot. (I could get used to that)
Commercials were great too…I think my favorite was either the David Letterman/Oprah Winfrey CBS promo, or the Emerald Nuts commercial with Robert Goulet.
My dear friend Pervis (real name Brian Dunn) is in the Peace Corps in Uganda. (Check out Pervis' blog)
Pervis is the biggest Colts fan I know. Here is a section he wrote recently about the Super Bowl…
The Colts are in the Super Bowl! The Colts are in the Super Bowl! Man, that’s unbelievable and it just won’t sink in. Every day I’ve been on the Internet reading dozens of articles about it, I just can’t get enough. I’m so pumped for the game!!! I’m going to stay up late Saturday night and watch NFL Primetime on DSTV here at 2am for 2 hours and then the Super Bowl pre-game stuff starts Sunday night at 9pm and lasts 5 hours until the game comes on live at 2am Monday morning. A few other hard core PCVs who live around here are coming to watch it live w/ me. The game is then replayed on ESPN International at 1pm and 6pm the next day, so even if the power does decide to go out (and who knows) there is a place in town that has a generator we can watch it on that afternoon.
Ladies and Gentlemen, that’s a true fan…
If you listen real closely I think you can hear Peyton Manning dedicate the victory in the post game interview to Pervis…
