It's Not Dallas, but Shorewood Still Enjoys Game in Style

The 'Big D' is the place to be for the game if you're in Texas, but Super Bowl fans in Shorewood are mighty happy watching the game closer to home.

It’s like a big meal: It takes forever to prepare and it’s gone in an instant. All that's left is the dishes.

The Super Bowl descended on Shorewood and the world Sunday, and not necessarily in that order.

Who would have thought Dallas in February wouldn’t be much warmer than it is in Shorewood?

The Texas city had an ice storm and on Sunday the forecast called for 39 degrees and a chance of rain at kickoff. That’s a real bummer for people who cracked their wallets for $200 for the privilege of standing outside to watch the game on a big television - in the rain. They could have done that in the Shorewood High School parking lot for free. 

Folks in Shorewood, at least those that weren’t bunkered down in their living rooms or at a friend’s party, celebrated in taverns and pubs around the village. Patch caught up with a bunch of these revelers on Sunday.
