Buckeyes vs. Badgers

I got a call late Friday from my brother in law asking if we'd be interested in going to the Buckeye game if he had extra tickets. My lovely, smart, understanding, wonderful (did I mention understanding and wonderful?) wife said there was no way she could go, but she didn't have a problem with me going. Saturday morning comes and confirmation that there are 2 tickets available. Oddly, I had little trouble talking my buddy Jeff into coming with me. Fortunately his lovely bride is equally understanding! :-)

We made it up with plenty of time for some pre-game festivities. First things first we caught up with Jason and his dad for some tailgating. Here's the crew getting warmed up for the game.


With plenty of time we had a chance to catch up with Steve and Irene who were tailgating near the stadium. Always good to catch up with good friends, and its even better in such a fun atmosphere!


After watching the band head into the stadium, we made our way to our seats. All I can say is WOW. Section 13AA, row 3. Sitting about 20 feet from the pylon, close enough to practically touch the field. I have to admit that I felt like a kid in a candy store...an enormous candy store. Jeff and I were hooting and hollering like maniacs and loving every minute of it!


While the offense didn't make much of a showing, the defense and special teams were on their game. A win is a win, and the Buckeyes pulled it out. We had an awesome time at the game and I can't wait to go back again sometime. Check out Picasa for a ton more pictures.
