Full Hour | Today, Dom led off the third hour by continuing a thread from last hour, rebooting a conversation with Dan, who is heading into Center City Philadelphia to watch the game at a friend’s house. Dan explains that he wants to experience the after party as fans take to the streets after a hopeful Philadelphia win, but is nervous riding Philadelphia’s public transportation SEPTA to leave the party. Dan asks whether Dom believes the train will be flooded with fans, leading to a safer environment, with Dom and listeners suggesting alternatives for both Dan and others descending upon the City for the big game.
Then, Dom welcomes in Tennessee State Representative Joe Towns, who recently proposed in his State Legislature to create an official State holiday the day following the Super Bowl, allowing both children in schools and state workers the opportunity to take off and enjoy the moment. Dom pushes back against the proposition, asking where instead we’d take the day from, with Towns suggesting that we add it to an already established list of holidays, with Dom pressing a particular amendment in the bill that suggests the removal of Christopher Columbus Day.
