CONGRATULATIONS TO DENVER BRONCOS
(Mr. LEWIS of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. LEWIS of Georgia. Madam Speaker, this past Sunday in the Super
Bowl, the Denver Broncos defeated the Atlanta Falcons 34 to 19. It was
a hard-fought game, and the Atlanta Dirty Birds came up a little short.
[[Page H385]]
Today I rise to say congratulations to the Denver Broncos and to my
colleague, the gentlewoman from Colorado (Ms. DeGette).
Denver won the Super Bowl and our colleague won our friendly little
bet. So this morning I presented to my colleague and her staff a
month's supply of Georgia peanuts and Atlanta's own Coca-Cola. Enjoy
the Coke and peanuts and the victory, while you can.
Next year the Dirty Birds will be back.
