Does anyone else have this frustration?
On Saturday’s in a football crazed community.
From 9 am til -
I can be packed- line at automatic - 5 self serves bays packed with cars waiting.
Then football comes on 14 channels on tv and you can hear the cricket’s chirping.
Fortunately the Buckeyes played at night so it wasn’t as bad yesterday.
I dont need a watch to tell what time it is on Saturday!

We have not had that issue on our Saturdays. I'm in Maryland, and we do not have a strong football team located in the state. Now the NFL is different when the Ravens are playing.

I know exactly what you mean ShinePro. I’m in the second smallest NFL market - Buffalo (the smallest is Green Bay). During a Buffalo Bills game, my street is lined with cars as if there were going to be the biggest 4th of July or Memorial Day block party ever. The streets are absolutely quiet - everyone is having their own version of a watch party. And that’s home games too - when the stadium is filled with 70,000 people! Stores are empty - this is the time to get your groceries or run errands- because you’ve got the places and the streets yo yourself.

Here in a town of 10,000, when there is high school or university sports at home, car washing takes a break.
