I was actually pretty surprised I made it this long. Although after the first week or so, it was relatively easy to go about things normally without much reason for people to mention it. Of all things, it was one of those annoying TVs on top of a gas station pump that finally got me. I stepped out of the car and had no chance before it said "... and as for the Patriots, they're probably still enjoying their fourth Super Bowl win."
This was quite an experience in and of itself, but it definitely did the job of tamping down the bullshit. By the time I found out, I barely even cared anymore who won the game, and as a bonus, for almost a whole extra month I didn't have to recognize a shitty team as Super Bowl champion. Still don't know anything about how the game went, except that a lot of people were saying right afterward that it was a really good game and I should watch it, before I shushed them. Maybe I'll look it up.
My only regret about the whole thing is that I missed a whole month's worth of opportunities to belittle Seahawks fans, although there'll be plenty more chances for that, I'm sure. I don't know a thing about anything that's happened in football for the last month; Tomlin and the entire starting offense could all be in jail right now for all I know. Found out a lot about European soccer, though. May be fun to write this down in more detail later, but for now I feel this experiment probably had the most positive outcome that was possible.
