Super Bowl Party In Germany

 Even though the staff at Palmgarten Dorm lives in Germany, we are all Americans.  So we decided to show the missionary kids and dorm staff from Maugenhard Dorm what an American Super Bowl Party looks like. The dorm parents in the boys dorm, Maugenhard, are from Australia, so this was a fun event.

 Since Germany is at least 6 hours ahead of the USA, the kickoff did not begin until 12:30am.  Here you can see the guys and girls from Palm and Maug waiting for the kickoff.  Since we were watching using a sling box, we could see American commercials.  Small things like this make those of us who live overseas feel like we are at home...well that and McDonalds and Starbucks.


The crowd gathers around the big screen. We used a projector to enjoy the game.


We also made a lot of American junk food to enjoy.  P & N, my freshmen, enjoy the yummy goodness.


Please notice the many empty pans.  This is maybe 15 minutes into the game.  We definitely had high school boys enjoying the midnight snacks.


This was my couch of football fans.  We were cheering for the Packers...who did WIN!  I did not make it through the whole game.  I went to bed after the half time show...and it was 2:40 am.
