Sheriff Joe Arpaio is world famous as "America's Toughest Sheriff". Inmates weak pink underwear, eat bologna sandwiches that cost only 40 cents per meal (and for which Joe charges them!) . In Summer inmates bake in Tent City, which recently celebrated its 20th year. When Sheriff Joe put up flags in prisoner's cells, he warned if any are defaced that inmate would get only bread and water for a full week -- and 38 inmates have been punished so far.

But Joe also has a heart of gold. He spends a huge amount of time helping animals,  giving indoor space to rescued animals, setting up a no-kill shelter for them, while hardened criminals got sent to the tents. Joe even housed inmates who are veterans in a separate area indoors, providing those with PTSD with special programs to get back on their feet.

Perhaps with sympathy in mind, this afternoon Sheriff Joe asked his fans on social media a question:

If the regime imprisons us (patriots), will they let us watch the SB if we are good?

Trick question. We won't be GOOD, so we'll be DEAD!

Of course, it is their constitutional right to watch the Super Bowl... but only on one 9-inch black & white TV set for every thirty prisoners tent.

Thanks for the update. I imagine it’s wise to do some nice things for people in prison.

He should force them to watch Beaches, Fried Green Tomatoes and Terms of Endearment.

Isn't that Cruel and Unusual Punishment?

Why do you think I suggested it?

All prisoners in Plymouth,Ma. received all the lobsters they wanted in the 1600’s but they revolted.

That's probably because they weren't allowed to watch the Superbowl. Sheriff Joe should take this lesson from history and not repeat it. /s

Unitas was a badass, won the 1958 NFL championship (his first) in OT and just walked off the field like it was nothing.

New weather forecasts predict KO temp will be in the 40’s so this won’t even be the coldest SB (at least at KO).
