I'll cross another item off the Bucket List tonight in going to a Colts playoff game. Actually, it will be my first game at Lucas Oil Stadium. It's been ages since I'd gone to an NFL game.
Some I talked to have taken to tweaking me about attending an event at a publicly funded stadium, given my opposition to same. Give it up. I long ago came to the conclusion that I couldn't do much of anything on this earth if I was going to live by litmus tests.
How could I eat any food but that which I grow? After all, I oppose farm subsidies, and virtually all American foods are subsidized. How could I interact with any other living human being? After all, I don't agree 100% with anyone? The battles over funding the stadium are over. The battles over continued subsidization of the team carry on, and I lend my voice. But, do I boycott the stadium forever? To what end? Am I hurting those with ill-gotten gains at that point? I don't really think so.
So, go Colts! I hope they win, and I hope it's a great game. I'm going with great friends for pre-game fun, and for the game itself. That's what matters.

People that let their political principles prevent them from enjoying life usually kinda suck to be around. Have fun. :)
