In our bag of goodies from Beat Coach Pete we received a ticket to the annual spring BSU game: the Blue & Orange game. Emily didn't want hers so Marcel and I took advantage of our free tickets and had went on a day-long date!
We started out the date by getting our rings cleaned, since we never make it all the way to Boise. When we were in Oregon I got mine cleaned about once a week since it was right down the road from Banana Republic so they were long over-due. We also tried to get them inspected but supposedly our warranties are no longer in the system. Frustrating! We then went to the mall to use my free Victoria's Secret coupon. Picnic lunch in the car on the way to the game. We were there for a very long time. We got there 45 minutes early to get a good seat but then they started almost 45 minutes late! We were even able to go out to dinner thanks to the main sound guy at our new church. Marcel has been doing a lot for him at church as his wife just had a baby and he hasn't been able to do all the services like he normally does. Chili's is so delicious. Plus we have so much leftover, it is 1 less meal I have to cook today :)
On to the fun part of blogging: PICTURES
could not have been a nicer day for a football game
I told Marcel that it was much nicer than having to be bundled up under a million blankets
the action
Marcel was so interested in this guy's job
he was the timing guy who made sure they knew where there would be TV timeouts for commercials, supposedly its a very important job with a lot of money in it since the momentum of a game can make the difference between a win and a loss...after Marcel was explained it to me I said, "so they owe their win at the Fiesta Bowl to him, because without him they may have lost a few games and would have never made it to the bowl game." That is probably not entirely true, but I'll always look for this guy now!
The final score: home was the offense and guest was the defense. The defense scored points for defensive things like forcing turnovers, sacs, 3 & outs, stopping a 4th down attempt. I'm still going with the fact that he was just upset he lost! They had to do a tie-breaker of a 2 point conversion--succeeding got the offense 2 points and a stop got the defense 2--it was a defensive stop so they won! They were the side that I chose to win because as I explained it to Marcel, they rarely have an opportunity to score points in a normal game. I was under the assumption that we were betting, meaning Marcel had the offensive, but as it turns out, he never agreed to having the offense, so no bet. I think he was just upset he lost. Even though I said the loser was buying dinner--we had giftcards so it didn't really matter--it was his pride that was threatened :)
