Super!

Monday, February 12, 2024

I’m from Kansas City, so it’s easy to guess which team I hoped would win yesterday’s Super Bowl. I was at work and couldn’t watch the game, but the store manager regularly fed into my earphone score changes. During the last fifteen minutes of game overtime, I took my break and watched the Chiefs demonstrate their strengths.

Since I live in Central Oregon, it’s a no-brainer that my coworkers and the store’s customers are mostly San Francisco fans. I, too, am a Forty-Niners fan. I root for them when they’re playing against any other eastern team than KC.

Both of my parents and their families hailed from Kansas City. For years, I lived there, too, and still feel emotionally connected to the area–and to long-time friends, relatives, and the world-class Chiefs.

Dear Friends: An exciting game, completely, up to its final second. Diana
