The American Bystander's Super Bowl Recap
Our intrepid Bob Eckstein watched the game at several NYC locales. Here's his report.
In addition to being one of America’s top-rank cartoonists, BOB ECKSTEIN is also the world’s leading expert on the snowman. This piece appears in The American Bystander #29, which can be ordered here. Bob’s Substack, “The Bob,” is here.
Great recap of the game, genuine and funny. Illustrations are really appreciated.
An event that has been around for fifty nine years, and I am older than it is.
I was never much of a sports fan growing up. Met Joe Namath the year after his golden moment.
I finally started paying attention to the sport when I was playing a weekly football pool at work. I started watching the scores on Sunday, and the Monday night game.
Settling into adult life I started watching more and more. But now I am much more of a baseball fan. The NFL is just something to get me through the withdrawal after the MLB season ends.
This game was mostly forgettable, and even leading up to the game, I could sense from media and others that they were just going though the motions.
But onward to Super Bowl LX!
