Searching for Super 3D glasses

I nearly missed kickoff for today's Super Bowl XLIII. I was running errands ... and trying to find 3D glasses. The glasses are for an iced tea commercial airing during the game, but I wanted them for the 3D episode of "Chuck" Monday.

I checked three stores and none of them had those darn glasses.

This whole "go to the store" for promotional glasses stinks anyway. I wish they distributed the glasses through direct mail or inserted them into Sunday newspapers. It's true they wouldn't get to everyone, but at least they would cover a large amount of households. Still, I may be a little biased on that score.

As the game is starting to unfurl, I think the Steelers will prevail, but the Cardinals have been surprising teams and fans all season long. Perhaps Arizona has one last surprise.
