Super Bowl bummer: CDC warns against ‘cheering’ at parties
NY Post ^ | 1 February A.D. 2021 | Lee Brown

Football fanatics will have to play a little defense in order to enjoy a safe Super Bowl this Sunday, according to new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention guidelines...

Sports junkies are reminded to wear masks, maintain social distancing, avoid crowded and poorly ventilated indoor spaces and wash their hands in order to “make small gatherings safer.”

But if you are venturing out to a gathering with members outside your household, the CDC warns against “shouting, cheering loudly, or singing” as the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

“Clap, stomp your feet, or bring (or provide) hand-held noisemakers instead,” the agency said in its updated “small gatherings” guidelines.

And forget about enjoying the usual game-day buffet — the CDC is advising partygoers to “bring your own food, drinks, plates, cups, utensils, and condiment packets.”...

Public health professor Jay Wolfson of the University of South Florida told the Tampa Bay Times that by now everyone should know the ingredients for “a ‘responsible’ Super Bowl get-together.”

“Wear the darn mask, especially when around folks you don’t live with, socially distance, wash your hands, carry sanitizer and use common sense,” he said...

“We need it. We deserve it,” Wolfson said of the Super Bowl. “Let’s not make it the last thing we ever do.”

CDC has zero reason to worry about this humble reporter. I won’t be cheering because I won’t be watching. You’re welcome.

I’m sicker of Tom Brady and the NE Patriots than I was with COVID last January.

Most years I only watch the Stupor Bowl for the commercials.

And now I can find them on a variety of sites on line before, during, and after.

Have no plans to watch the super owl or the deviant half time show that goes with it.

It will never end.

Trump should have put a stop to it last year.

It would be hilarious if a bunch of players tested positive for the kungflu and the stupor bowl was canceled.
