Harbaugh’s parents will not be attending Harbowl on Monday night

It’s not often that a highly-hyped football game has the right steak to sizzle, but Monday night will definitely do the trick.

On the next edition of Monday Night Football, John Harbaugh and the 7-4 Baltimore Ravens face Jim Harbaugh and the 7-3 Los Angeles Chargers in a game with many layers of significance.

Yes, there will be fierce sibling rivalries at the Harbaugh Bowl or Harbowl, right before Thanksgiving.

But this contest also has big implications for the AFC playoff picture, so it’s a game with big significance outside of all the Harbaugh families.

Unfortunately, both Harbaugh parents will not be in attendance. While appearing on the Ravens’ official podcast, The loungesaid Jack Harbaugh that he and his wife Jackie will be traveling to Florida on Monday night, where they will visit their daughter Joanie (as you’ve probably figured out by now, in this family it’s a requirement that everyone has a first name). that starts with J).

The Harbaugh parents will spend Thanksgiving with Joanie, her husband, former Georgia, Indiana and Marquette men’s basketball coach Tom Crean, and their children, Jack and Jackie’s grandchildren.

“We decide to go there and celebrate Thanksgiving with them and watch the game with them,” Jack said.

“And we will have a lot of fun and joy along the way.”

Monday night’s game also falls on Jack and Jackie’s 63rd wedding anniversary.
