‘Roar! Yeah Baby ooh Baby yeah!’

As many of you know, last night a Sports happened. The annual event, known colloquially as the ‘Super-Bowl’ involves a contraindicated mixture of homemade nachos of questionable quality to be guzzled down with what I am assuming is micro brewed beer.

Act 1 – A Square in Gaza
The Hebrews are being held in slavery by the Philistines. Samson, bestowed with incredible strength by God, encourages them to have faith in their God and hope for the future.

They win and the High Priest of Dagon (one of the gods worshipped by the Philistines) is angered.
