Tryptophan causes family to miss ending of Jets/Cowboys game


The Grant family of Mt Laurel,NJ had painfully watched almost the entire match-up between the New York Jets and the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day only to miss out on one of the most believable endings ever. The family sat around the dining room table feasting on the lavish holiday dinner at 3:30PM and by 4:30 had adjourned to the TV room to watch the remaining three quarters of the Dallas-New York game. "The halftime score was 21-3 Dallas," said Bill Grant the father. By the end of the third quarter Susan,12, had very heavy eyelids when the score reached 24-3. The tryptophan had seized control of the family by the start of the 4th quarter and all three were fast asleep. The final score was Dallas 34, New York 3. "The last play I remember was Joey Harrington throwing an incomplete pass and then I was out, we all really wanted to see the ending," said Melissa Grant the mother.
