BYU - FSU Game

On Saturday, we headed to Tallahassee for the BYU vs. FSU football game. We even met up with my brother in law, Ben, who drove down with some of his friends from Nashville, TN.
We got to hang out with Cosmo for a little bit before the game started. We also made a stop at the BYU tailgate where I got a free BYU logo sticker for our car.

We were joined at the game with some friends from law school, Kristin and John. It was John's lucky day as he is a big FSU fan.

BYU did not have a very good game. The first half was fun as we kept it a close game, but by the second half our defense was tired and what else can you do when you don't have an offense and it is sweltering outside.

Even though BYU lost 34-10 it was still a fun trip up to Tally. It was my first time there and I enjoyed getting to see another school's atmosphere. However, the drive back was long (it takes about 4 hours) and we were exhausted from sitting out in the sun all day! It was hot and humid - who schedules a 3:30 game in this heat? We made it home though and took a nap the next day.
Trip Highlights:
* Walking around the FSU stadium before the game started with Ben and Robert getting to see all the pre-game festivities.
* Snow cones during half time. It was so hot!
* Running into people we knew from BYU and from the Tampa area
* Greek Row!
* Stopping for a bite to eat at Subway on the way home.
* Having a dance party in the car.
* Watching a drunk kid fall down a hill and be taken around by his pants by a cop.
* The long ride home and trying to stay awake.

Fun you guys went! We are going to the BYU vs TCU game here in ft worth ... that'll be an upset if BYU can pull that off. Too bad they lost to FSU.
