Coldest NYE on record I saw on the news yesterday. WRAP UP, and take care. Sending warmth from my heart to yours.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Diana</b>, NICE.&nbsp;<b></b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wtw-frigid-football#post-1873353 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 15:55:48 +0000 Chris987 1873353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>fashioninterm there is no way I'd go to an outdoor sports game this time of year unless there was some huge important reason!&nbsp; Thanks for the compliment on my writing. </p> <p>Yup Diana, with you all the way. Even if you can take the cold, the traffic and parking are a huge hassle too </p> <p>Jaileen, I'm not surprised, SanFran is damp and raw even in summer. Not quite below freezing but still enough to make you very uncomfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wtw-frigid-football#post-1873344 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 15:12:53 +0000 JAileen 1873344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We used to take sleeping bags to Giants games at Candlestick Park. In the summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wtw-frigid-football#post-1873343 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 15:08:45 +0000 Diana 1873343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol you have the right idea, Chris. &nbsp;</p> <p>My husband entered a raffle at work last week for tickets to today's game. &nbsp;I was so happy when he did not win... &nbsp;Although I would not have gone even if he had won them as I am not a football fan, would have told him to "treat" his dad instead. &nbsp;</p> <p>Anyway, my preferred way of "watching" football is to wander into the living room while my husband is watching the game and steal his snacks and beer. ;)&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wtw-frigid-football#post-1873339 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 14:44:33 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 1873339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice writing! All the way through, I was looking for a polite way to tell you that unless it’s your kid out there, you’d be crazy to go—and then the punchline hit . Lap cats are great heaters </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wtw-frigid-football#post-1873336 Sun, 31 Dec 2017 14:30:32 +0000 Chris987 1873336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>American Football (not the same game called football every where else on the planet, called "soccer" in the US) is hardly ever canceled because of weather. They play in rain, snow, wind, and icy temperatures.</p> <p>Today the New England Patriots are playing the New York Jets in the Patriots stadium in Foxboro Mass. Kickoff is 1pm EST, with temperature predicted to be 10 F. Today's game may not break the records from a game in January &nbsp;2004 when it was in the single digits and the wind chill made it feel like 10-15 below, but it sure will be cold. We're into the start of the playoffs so fans are pumped on both sides. </p> <p>The players on both teams have heated benches, space blankets, and all manner of other tech clothing to keep them warm. </p> <p><b><i>What to wear as fans? </i></b>Many moons ago I had a boss who was a diehard fan and he explained it to me. You just add some special items to your regular outdoor cold weather gear. To survive several hours in what's usually a windy stadium, here is what you need. He owned ALL of these items: </p> <p>1 -&nbsp;stadium management will be giving out hand warmer packs to everyone today<br /> 2 - battery heated socks<br /> 3 - battery heated gloves<br /> 4 - a cold weather sleeping bag to wrap yourself in up to the neck</p> <p><b><i>I will be watching from my couch, with a cashmere wrap, a cat under one hand and the other holding a cup of&nbsp;hot&nbsp;tea. Central heating for me!</i></b> </p>
