Full House

On Superbowl Sunday, eighteen friends watched the game at our place.  Eighteen! Talk about a full house.

Our apartment, though roomier than the first two places, still lacks lots of space. Fortunately, our friends didn't mind and they happily squeezed into any available spot. Four nudged onto the loveseat. Two plopped on the floor. Eight settled into chairs. One hopped on a barstool. One rested on a big pillow. One sat on a step stool. And, one stood.

I never doubted that everyone would fit into our 11x19 ft room. But, Ben... he stressed just a little about everyone's comfort level. Despite limited space, the party was a success and felt very "New York". Nowhere else in the U.S. would it be normal for that many adults to be in the same room of this size.

Hopefully, everyone had a great time. If needed, we'll lure them back next year with the chili cheese dip. Here's to Superbowl XLVI in 2012.
