re: I just can’t get over how great that iron bowl was….

My dad and I are pacers and this is the first Iron Bowl we've watched on tv together in a while.

Haha. I have a bike on a trainer in the living room since its winter. I kept finding myself on it pedaling and mentally reminding myself I had guests over and to get off.

Lolol, this is so similar to my experience. I watch all the games at my parents' house. My Dad tried to watch it with me twice, but I was too much for him and he went back to his room both times. Around halftime I entered into a zen state where everything was just fine and I was no longer that upset. I started working a puzzle in the living room (mom's family Christmas tradition). When the snap was low on that failed 4th down, I just chuckled and said, "Of course" and put another piece into the puzzle.

Finally, their Hopper in the living room messed up and I had to watch the last 8 or so minutes in my Dad's room. I'm glad I did, we jumped, we hugged, we nearly cried. It was great.
