I was playing music from Borodin's Prince Igor at an orchestra concert this afternoon; does that count?

(We had a good audience, too -- I have a feeling that the set of people who attend classical music concerts doesn't overlap very much with the set of people who watch football.)

I've been taking a break from working on http://101in365.com to watch the commercials sometimes, but yeah... hacking on a project is way more fun! Managed to get a lot done today too! Good that my friends have all be pre-occupied by the game so I can concentrate!

I'm doing both, since neither team is my team I'm only half paying attention to it.

I also think it's hilarious how so many techies love to brag about not caring about football. I'd have thought that hackers would enjoy the complexity of the game (most of the programmers I know love football, and meeting up for beers on football Sundays is a ritual for us).
