Make The Day After the Superbowl A Holiday


Recommended Posts

Election day first. Then that one.

 

How about we just move the Super Bowl to President's Day Weekend? Just knock the start of the season back about 2 weeks. It'd compete with Baseball less, people would be home anyway, and you'd get far more games where the elements are actually a problem than with the current scheme (something I personally think is one of the more entertaining parts of football games)

I don't think I've ever had a President's Day off. And White Castle's definitely not going to be the one to make this succeed.

I'd rather have off the Thursday or Friday for the opening round of the NCAA tournament.

Nice, I watch those games regardless who's playing.

 

I feel like I watch the Super Bowl out of obligation. With exception of the past couple years, that game is never good.

I believe Stock Markets, many schools, and the Post Office are closed that day, along with quite a few other businesses. Just means you, like me, picked the wrong college to go to. (I still can't figure out how the hell IU doesn't get 1 break between the start of school and Thanksgiving.)

Haha yeah, that is kind of a pain. But I'm not talking just college. I'm positive I've never had President's Day off from K-12.
