You know you are old when none of the Super Bowl commercials are funny.

Maybe the 1/2 half will be better.

This belongs in the old fart thread. Oh wait, we're already here. I am over 50 and thought the halftime show was epic

I'm old enough to be your father and I liked the 1/2 time show too. I just thought the commercials were a big yawn and/or unfunny. I'm aware that I'm not the target audience so it's all good.

You didn't miss anything regarding the half-time show.

I confess that I didn't watch the Super Bowl at all, but I did Google the score every 30 mins. After the Rams won, L.A.'s finest were out throwing bottles and trashing shit, sparking responses from local law enforcement. Win…..damage and riot. Lose…..damage and riot. I'm glad I was off.

Why? They won?!?! I guess that's how they celebrate.

I didn't watch it, either. The morning TV news on this coast did report one shooting in LA during a post-game street celebration. No details, though.....

What a cheapskate. We had these. We were too young to know what rookie cards were.

I was curious if it was a horizontal shot (assault) or a vertical shot (California celebration) that hit the victim, but the talking heads didn't elaborate.....

One day I got a bit over zealous. I grabbed mom's cloths pin bag and proceeded to clip a full deck of cards on my bicycle. That mother would hardly move, but it sure sounded good!

I did that! I had an early Sandy Koufax card and I used it on my bike. Who knew?

Let me guess, you graduated to loud headers for your cars in your early years. Possibly, you like a good growl now. Just guessin'

Don’t get me started on baseball cards. I had some good ones. My mother wasn’t happy that her daughter was a TomBoy and tossed my collection. It would have been worth a small fortune.

I grafted four 6 x 9 speakers into my little 1971 Mecury Capri, along with a 25 watt Equalizer. Heh!

It's wouldn't be worth that fortune if none of the mothers threw out the cards. And comic books. And some of our most favorite toys.

But were they Jensen's, with a woofer, midrange, and tweeter, all in one?

This is the one I installed in my car. Had the 8Track tapes until recently.
