| Well, let's see who's even coming so far?
Brad (maybe a few more)
STW (1 or 2?)
TBird (2)
LCC (2)
ItalianWino (1)
ojeffso (2)
For wine, yes, most likely an assortment. So far seems to be mostly California, and I was thinking of a couple Spanish wines.
I'll probably have "typical" fare... Assorted Meats and cheeses, an entree and desserts. No pizza.... and no STW or Ojeffso... not even pizza with foie gras. | |

| Well it looks like I am not keeping as good an inventory of my wines as I thought. The '97 Le Puzzle and '97 Von Strasser have been consumed. (I thought I had 1 more of each left). I suppose since my name is Italian Wino I should bring an Italian red. I may bring a Tua Rita. I will report back with some choices.

| Brad -
Put us down for 2. We'll be there around 4:30 - 5:00 with Italian Wino in tow (assuming his flight's on time!).
Anything other than wine we can bring? | | | |

| Make sure you are all wearing your Steeler jerseys! 
I will not be attending any social SB party this year - it is a working outing for me - serious (and focused) fans only.
GO STEELERS! | | | |

| | So funny thing... about a week ago my LCD RPTV went crazy... the Red LCD panel had a short or did something in which a whole mess of red pixels were stuck the screen. Here I am, hosting the Superbowl... with a crap tv. Well, let's just say... thank the gods of the Sears Master Protection Program. A $399 program saved me $1100 + labor in repairs... the TV is good to go... in all it's High Definition glory. I'm am little concerned about the three extra screws they had... *shrug* | |

| What do you think of me bringing a 1997 Pio Cesare Barolo (WS #7 of top 100 in 2001). Has anyone had this recently? I am not sure if it is drinking well right now. If it is shut down I will certainly find another red to bring.

| | I haven't had it, but you might certainly want to wait on a '97 Barolo for your own benefit. My '98's are still entirely too young to drink. However, I would never stop you.. :-) | |

| I have decided to bring the 2003 Melville "Donna's" Syrah and a white Burgundy from 2002. This syrah is a great wine with food.

| I have been watching this thread passively for a while with growing envy but no hope of attending, until - I just heard from Mrs. VT that I was on my own for Superbowl this year!
And then I see KB Pinots ...
.. it adds up to a definite possibility that I can be there to watch the Seahawks win their first superbowl.
Brad: Help with types of wine I can bring ... will PM a list for guidance.

| VT, that's great! Glad you can come!
Will look for your wine list... post it here if you like as well. I think I'll just end up filling in the holes from my cellar based on what others are bringing. | |

| Brad,
Whatever wine you decide to open I am sure it will be a good choice. You mentioned you may open a really good Spanish wine, I for one would love to try a good Spanish wine. Thanks again for hosting. Now all I need is for my plane to arrive on time.
