Bethesda Fountain Angel Protects New York Giants

Early this morning walking through Central Park, I asked the Bethesda Fountain Angel to fly out to San Francisco today to watch over the Giants during their NFC Championship game. The angel agreed on one condition, I have to lay off Hellman’s mayonnaise for one week. I asked her to give me a few minutes to think about it. 

I headed for Sailboat Lake where I saw Fifth Avenue upside down in the water, then I strolled over to The Boathouse and spied the Ice Queen sipping ice tea at a cafe table, then I returned to Bethesda Terrace and told the Angel, “OK."

Before lifting off, the Angel promised to closely watch our punter today figuring the game will be a chess match over field position. The Angel plans to open an old fashioned party line for the Giants secondary so they don’t miss assignments. 

As the Angel flew away, I shouted, "Go Giants!"

She curled one wing back towards me, then cleared the trees heading west.
