Finkbowl wrap

Finkbowl XV is in the books. The decorations are down, the final winnings have been paid out, and all travelers have returned home. Still got a fridge full of leftovers to work through, but that's part of the way I make this event last longer.

This has become such a great event for us. As I mentioned last year after the Snowmaggedon Finkbowl, it's humbling to have so many people travel so far for our little party. The locals seem to enjoy it too, and the nice weather this year allowed the traditional kids football game outside to resume after a year hiatus.

With the looming NFL lockout, someone questioned what would happen if there is no Super Bowl next year. There's no question at all: whether or not there's a game, the first Sunday in February will have a Finkbowl. We'll just have to find something else to bet on other than football.
