Yes, Saturday was a fantastic day. I really didn't care too much about anything, but going to the game with Ryan. This game was the last time Ryan and I would get to sit in the student section at Tech together. It made for a sad moment for me, but Ryan was just thinking of getting season tickets! How we are going to use all of them if we live in Houston is not even in the equation right now! Priorities will even themselves out though once they come up and I am sure that Tech sesson tickets will have to wait until way down the line.
Anyhow, we got to go to the game and it was so much fun. Even though the student section was not angels, they seemed to tone down their aggressiveness towards the other teams more; at least the section we were sitting in. I thought it was funny that when the fight song first played the students were still saying "we will f**** kick their a**, " but once their realized that the majority around them was not saying that, they converted to the right words. ( Hit "em, wreck 'em, hit 'em wreck 'em Texas Tech) I was happy that peer pressure and majority won out on that one. There were some other instances during the game though when I thought the students were being a lot less than classy about the AM band and the vick 'em shirts, but you are not gong to see a complete 180 from the students in just 1 week. It will probably take years to reverse how bad they have gotten. The campus and student life organizations are starting programs and encouraging better attitudes from the students. Finally!!!
Here are some pictures of all the fun we had......
In order Michael Crabtree, one of the spirit shops had this thing sitting outside their store for attention... Yes, that is a car under there.
The game had not started yet, so we were taking pictures to pass the hour we had to sit and wait. Ryan and I didn't intend to wear the same shirt and hats, it just happend that way. I promise!
