These are our kind of football fans:SHERIDAN, Colo. – A couple planning to set off their own Super Bowl pyrotechnics accidentally blew up their own car while transporting a balloon filled with an explosive gas.
Norman Frey, 46, and his companion suffered busted eardrums in the explosion Sunday as they drove to a Super Bowl party, according to the Arapahoe County sheriff.
The balloon had been filled with acetylene, a flammable gas used in welding, and it had rolled across the back seat, possibly causing static electricity that ignited the gas. You laugh -- and then you think, how many of our fellow countrymen are equally stupid? At least a supposed 91 million -- they watched the SUPER BORE.
