But how do you go to a football game and leave without knowing for sure who won? Anything could happen in 30 minutes!
My father would often tell me the story of how he left the Herman Edwards Miracle At The Meadowlands game early, heard the crowd gasp in unison on the way out and then ran to the car only to hear the announcer repeating "I don't believe it" over and over again. Then he wouldn't defend me when his friends would complain about not being able to leave any games early when I was with them.
