Once you know the time, own it. Tell your family, “Hey, from 1:25 to 4:30, I am unavailable unless the house is on fire.” Put your phone on Do Not Disturb. Slice some avocados. Get the good chips. The Niners game is your two-to-three-hour vacation from real life, and you deserve it.
And if you somehow miss the time? Don’t stress. You can always check the game on your phone at the grocery store. But trust me—watching it live, with the crowd noise and the suspense, is a million times better. Give yourself the gift of knowing exactly when to sit down.
So, tomorrow morning, before you even decide which socks to wear, just whisper it: “What time do the Niners play?” Find the answer. Then, plan your snacks, your jersey, and your heart. Game on.
