Move Super Bowl to Saturday Says ‘Stache Institute

By Chris Mottram
The fine folks at the American Mustache Institute (AMI) have started a movement that we can all get behind: Changing Super Bowl Sunday to Super Bowl Saturday.
It just makes too much sense. Not only does AMI provide precedent from other major sports for such a move, but addresses the most important issue here: No one likes being hungover in the workplace the Monday after the Super Bowl. (Of course, I overcome this pesky issue by showing up to work still drunk. Sure, you’re less productive, but at least you’ll be in a better mood.)
Dr. Daniel T. Callahan, the AMI’s Director of Research, feels so strongly about thing issue that he agreed to join a representative from the Beard Congress, which happens to be the sworn enemy of the AMI:

You hear that people? The only Americans left watching the World Series are “widows and shut-ins.” Is that what you want for the future of the Super Bowl?
With “116% of the people” the AMI polled behind the movement, it seems like we’re well on our way to a brighter future.
