Observations of My Dad During the Last Few Minutes of the Super Bowl

My dad is half sitting, half laying on the couch across the room.  He looks like an old version of me, about the same weight, but he wears thick old people glasses.  He has his leg up on the couch and his remote in his right hand.  He is leaning on his left elbow with is hand raised, holding a veggie platter, with a round bowl of ranch sauce.  Periodically he puts down the remote to grab a carrot and dip it into the ranch.  Now my mom reaches over to take the platter from him, and he replaces it with a napkin, slowly crumpling it in his hand.  He continues to chew, and smack his lips several times after swallowing.  Now he raises his hand resting it on the top of his head, always with eyes forward.

He is watching the Super Bowl intently, making no signs of movement as a commercial comes on.  As the commercial gets to the punch line he begins to laugh.  I missed the joke because I was intent on observing his reaction.  The next commercial airs, and his demeanor reverts back to the same as it was before.  Now, minutes after the last bite, he continues to lick and pick his teeth with his tongue, smacking his lips, and making noises.  He then reaches his hand down from his head to scratch his chin.  

The platter now is passed across the room.  After two minutes he slowly slides off the couch onto his knees and scuttles over to the platter to get another bite.  Then he reverses the action and finds his way back onto the couch.  He is now in almost the same position, only this time resting his right leg over the arm of the couch.  

As a throw was caught, his foot began to bounce up and down, and he began yelling "oh!, oh! oh my goodness! Look at that, there's going to be a time out.  Come on, come on."  He reaches down and begins to rub his eyebrow.  "uh, hold on to that."  The game is getting close to an end.  "Thats a first down, they can still win this game, if they just get a touchdown, wheowowooowowo ya ya, they did it.  It's not over yet, Brady still has time to get a field goal to tie it up.  This is good, it's finally getting exciting."he says as he shakes his fist in the air.  "28 seconds", then "he could have got the interception" then,"oooohhh, he just got sacked." 

He switches his eyebrow rubbing to the left side.  "That was stupid, why aren't they going for ten or twenty yard pickups?  Fourth and twenty...oooohhhweheeehehyaaa, can you believe it, the patriots, after going undefeated..."  He shakes his head and says "so new england didn't do it", then laughs "hehehhe, cheaters never prosper!" yet there was no noticeable movement made at the end of the game.
