COMMENT OF THE DAY: HOUSTON’S CRUMBLING SUPER BOWL SOUVENIRS “. . . I think pretty much everyone has long forgotten that we had a Super Bowl here. That memory is tossed out like an empty bag of chips. $347 million was allegedly pumped into our economy, and all I got was some quick fills of some potholes.” [Super Bowl Memories, commenting on Super Bowl LI’s Economic Impact in Houston; Expanding Metro’s Reach; previously on Swamplot] Photo of George R.
