Super Bowl XIX
The flight took off from Dallas.
Flying toward Knob Hill.
Golden Gate Bridge
beautiful view, Fairmont’s bill.

Fisherman’s Wharf,
Ocean to the west,
Chinatown.
Ate too much seafood, no rest.

Breakfast was early.
Anticipation rose with the sun.
Come on 49ers,
we crave lots more fun.

Everyone is happy,
excitement crackles in the air.
Have a Bud Light
be sad if you dare.

Montana and Marino
wait for the call.
Where is that coin toss?
Who’ll get the ball?

Fans boo Reagan,
Cheer for their team.
Drink lots of beer,
Become somewhat obscene.

The game is over,
49ers can’t be beat.
San Francisco is chaotic,
Dolphins sigh in defeat.

Cowboy players fill the plane.
All of us hoping next year will bring,
The Dallas Cowboys
A Super Bowl ring!
OurEcho is a FREE SERVICE dedicated to capturing and sharing the individual "bits and pieces" that define our local communities. It might be a bit of interesting local history, an old photograph, a special memory or just a funny story. We are particularly interested in those fascinating and intriguing events/people (both large and small) that we all encounter as part of the human experience. It might be something that happened recently or something passed down to you through your family. Our goal is to provide a forum for local communities to share who they are through their stories and photographs. When you take the time to share these reflection with others, you help us better understand you, the world we live in, and if we are lucky, they help us better understand ourselves.
