Watching the Super Bowl—with Joe Biden

Wed, January 28, 2009 - 11:39 AM

Florida’s senior senator, Democrat Bill Nelson, won’t be in Tampa to attend Sunday’s Super Bowl.

Instead, he’ll be watching the game in DC at the house of an old Senate colleague—Vice President Joe Biden.

Biden extended the invitation to Nelson Tuesday as the vice president was at the U.S. Capitol for the swearing-in of New York’s new senator, Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand.

No word yet on who else was invited to the vice president’s residence at the Naval Observatory, or who is buying the beer and Buffalo wings.

Nelson has been told that dress is to be casual, call time 6 p.m.
