How could we forget Blake? He's our future Cougar!
My best friend from middle school...we haven't seen each other in about 14 years!
This was after the game. It sure cleared out fast, but we were in no hurry to rush to the car and sit in traffic!
The huge screens! There are actually 4! 2 HUGE and 2 smaller ones
The OU band opened the game. This was pretty neat how they stood in the OU letters.
Both headed coaches having a chat before the game
A view from our seats
The stadium from where we parkedWhat an exciting weekend we had. We drove down with my parent's to Dallas to be a part of the BYU/OU game. My brother lives just outside of Dallas, so we left Blake with my sis-in-law (thanks Loren!) and we all headed to Arlington! Erik and I were torn between who to cheer for since he just graduated from BYU and now attends OU. It was tough. We did end up wearing OU gear, but most of the screaming happened when BYU had the action! We were in the OU section and I know people were looking at us like we were crazy and not to happy with us....wearing Oklahoma but cheering BYU?? We didn't care..we really wanted BYU to win!! It was close, but a good result!
The new stadium is another story. That place is HUGE! It holds about 80,000 people and has huge TV screens that stretch from one 20 yard line to the other 20 yard line. Talk about ULTIMATE HD!
The attendance at the game was close to 75,000.....and it definitely looked like it!
Our seats were pretty high, but there really isn't a bad seat in the house since you have the gigantic TV above you!
We knew a ton of people that were going to the game and one family in particular was fun to see! I've been keeping in touch on Facebook with a best friend of mine from middle school when I lived in Florida. She told me she was going to the game with her whole family and so we thought it would be so fun to meet up and have our families catch up! It was so fun to see them after all these years...Facebook really brings people together!! :)
It is so fun to see you with Rachel. Someday the fabulous four, you, Rachel, Dannii and Em will have to have a reunion.
ReplyDeleteI am exceedingly jealous that you went to the football game. We watched from home on the tv. Even on TV it was a great game.
Looks like a fun time! And how cute is Blake with that hat?!?!?!
ReplyDeletePoor baby Blake.
ReplyDeleteHe is going to be so confused with where his loyalty lies. :)
What a fun game to go to. So jealous. That stadium is unreal!
BTW...cute zebra shirt, even if it's for the wrong team.
I'm so jealous you and Ray got to get together! It's been years since I've seen her and even more years since we've all been in the same room...we should work that out sometime!
ReplyDeleteJason was jealous that you guys were at the game. ;) Glad you had so much fun, what a game!! Blake is getting so big.
