A Michigan man is petitioning the federal government for a mandatory Monday morning reprieve from the alcohol-fueled unnecessary roughness of Super Bowl Sunday.
According to BusinessNewsDaily, Josh Moore has started a petition on the White House’s We the People website to make the day after the game a national holiday. Mr. Moore told the website that idea birthed in the realization that, because the many people don’t feel like going to work the day after the game, the day off would do little to harm productivity and instead promote camaraderie.
“I am running on the assumption that the day after the Super Bowl is one of the least productive days of the work year, along with the day before Christmas and New Year’s Eve,” Mr. Moore told BusinessNewsDaily.
With the petition still approximately 90,000 signatures short of triggering an official White House response, Mr. Moore acknowledges that the effort is akin to a Hail Mary but remains optimistic. “I think we have a chance,” he said.
