Maybe next time

Scott and I had the privilege of taking Alex and Parker to the TCU-OU game yesterday in Norman, Oklahoma. It was a long day in the car and a not very exciting game, but we had a really great time.

Having gone to a small, private university that didn't actually even have a football program, it is fascinating to see how these big schools celebrate the tradition of the football game. We went early and hung out with Scott's secretary, Loretta's family and then walked over to the game, being four of very few people wearing purple. It was a little intimidating, to say the least!!

TCU didn't play their best game and, as a result, made for a pretty boring game. Of course, we were in the middle of our row, and can I just say that they totally pack you into the bleachers to where you can't move without bumping into someone. A claustrophobic person would not do well there!!

The band was impressive as they marched down the street and into the stadium. To see almost all of the 85, 100 people singing the same songs, doing the same motions, jumping up at the right time, shouting the same things...it was pretty cool!! (even if they weren't shouting for our team!!)

Maybe next time, they'll win!!
