Had a great time watching the New York Football Giants beat the Packers. There is only one place in Dublin that stays open for the entire game so we walked over around 8 to the Wool Shed which is an Australian bar on the other side of the city. Saw the Pats win again blah, blah, blah. Then the main event finally started around 1130 over here. Most of the bar was made of Americans so it was fun to meet a lot of people from all over. We met up with our buddy Simon, and some of us were being recruited to play American football here for the Dublin City Rhinos so I guess they aren't very good. At half-time everyone left since today was our first day of class, but I couldn't miss the end of the game so I stayed by myself. I ended up meeting a group of people from D.C., and watched the rest of the game with them. One of the them was a BC class of '01 so it was fun to talk to him. It was a great game, and the bar had these two huge projection screens so it was a great atmosphere. Finally got home around 4am, slept for 4 hours and was up at 8 to go to class which was just amazing. Can't wait till the Super Bowl when the Giants can beat the Pats ruining their perfect season.
