Pete's Blog: Super Bowl XLV from Ozzie's: Third Quarter

-The Steelers need a stop to start this third quarter; any type of score will decimate the momentum from their TD at the end of the first half.

-It’s official, the talking baby commercial is my favorite, and judging by laughter, I’m not alone.

-Mendenhall has the run game going strong, and the Steelers are back in business after a stop to start the half, and some first downs. The upstairs is going crazy with each big play.

-Mendenhall TD causes faux earthquake downstairs. 21-17 Packers, and it looks like the Steelers have all the momentum.

-Ozzie’s is going nuts. Steelers fans walking from upstairs are screaming on their way out for a cigarette, and Packers fans don’t seem to have any answer. Green Bay needs some life.

-Ozzie’s owner Roberto Gallardo is hosting quite the party here, running up and down stairs like Rocky to make sure all his NFL demographics are catered to. With the number of Steeler fans though, he’s a lot more animated with Pittsburgh success.

-Almost got a Pittsburgh Terrible Towel to the face after they missed that long FG. One fan screamed, “Why kick it from that distance! (Expletive) punt!” Huge stop by Green Bay, and they’re rewarded with field position.

- Third quarter ends after a questionable lost challenge by Green Bay. Steeler fan Maryann from California goes crazy, and poses for a great picture.

“I moved out here from California to work for the Small Business Administration: Office of Disaster Assistance. I don’t know many people, but I found out about Ozzie’s and am having so much fun. I’m a Steeler fan, it’s in my genetic code, and we have the best fans on earth!”

-Some raffle winners are being announced and I’m starting to wish I bought a square. People keep winning all around me.
