Opening Weekend for the NFL 2025

 

So, I thought this slide would be slightly appropriate.

Obviously, this is not a NFL Team's home pitch...it looks like a High School or Collage. But where?

Looking closely, I saw that the band had a "Sequoia ", which immediately made me think of the College of the Sequoias. But nope, the city in the background is clearly built in the hills, whereas Visalia is built on the flat.

But then, in a dream, a Patagonian Toothfish with the face of JD Vance told me to search for Kezar Stadium, and ...lo and behold, this image from 1950.

So, that led to this website .. and I'm certain it's a match. 

And it was the first home of the 49ers and the Raiders!

Bonus :  Nah.  I'm hungry.

SuperBowl Half Time Entertainment

 

Congratulations to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for their win. While Tom Brady gets the headlines, the win came from their excellent Defence, which dominated so much that Patrick Mahome and co couldn't score ANY touchdowns.

But the half time entertainment was some huge set piece featuring The Weeknd. (Who?   I am SO out of touch with modern music.)

O, for the simpler days when the half time entertainment was the University of Whatever Marching Band, and two bloke in giany diapers, on bicycles.

Bonus - Congrats to Scotland Rugby, who defeated England, at the Twickenham, preventing Englnd from scoring any tries.

The Stadium In The Hills

 

With the NF|L season under way, and the SeaHawks doing rather well, thanks to my guidance, so this slide seems slightly appropriate.

Alas, and as no surprise, I have no clue where this stadium would be.

Anyone want to help ?

Bonus - Yes, It's graffiti, but it's Awesome
