The Super Bowl is tomorrow, meaning that a regular assortment of high-profile pre-game parties have been taking place in the Bay Area this weekend, as various brands and bands take advantage of the confluence of many of the country’s biggest football fans in a single place. And while the Big Game itself has—after becoming the focus, last year, of the roving eye of our present political hellworld, thanks to the Trump administration getting in a snit over the idea that Bad Bunny might, heaven forfend, sing in Spanish for part of the game’s halftime show—tried to keep things from getting too real-world dire since, some smidge of reality can’t help but slip through the cracks. Like, say, Billie Joe Armstrong, frontman for Green Day (which is playing the game’s opening ceremony this year) offering some career advice to any Immigrations And Customs Enforcement agents that might have been in the audience at Spotify and FanDuel’s party in San Francisco on Friday night: “Quit your shitty ass job.”
