Get Your Griz On

Tan's work scored us tickets to the first home game and pre-game President's brunch. It was pretty cool; tickets are pretty expensive and everyone from miles around are so excited for this team.

Out of all those attending at the brunch, my name got pulled out of the hat to receive a free Grizzly sweatshirt :) The look on their faces when they read my name was priceless. Nobody had a clue who I was.

During the game both teams got pulled off the field due to lighting that was hitting 3-7 miles of the stadium. After huddling under the concession awning for 45 minutes it cleared up rather suddenly:

To quote a local journalist, "The only things that slowed the Grizzlies Saturday were a couple bolts out of the blue and gray." The team won 73-2 (got to love those first game match-ups).

How fun! I love football games this time of year. It's kind of like ushering in Fall. I want to see the sweatshirt.

Looks like your lives have become a continual round of going and doing and seeing and now winning! I'm so glad you are in a place that provides such fun activities.
