Happy Birthday to each of you

By the time Jim arrived at the football game the first half was almost over.
“Why are you so late?” his friend asked.
“I had to toss a coin to decide between going to church and coming to the game,” he replied.
“How long could that have taken you?”
“Well, I had to toss the coin 14 times.”
