Go Pats!

"GO PATS!!!"  I don't know why, but it seemed out of place to be at a high intensity testosterone-filled football game hearing the word Pats.  Maybe it's just me.

Danny has a coworker who's brother has season tickets to the Patriots games.  Occasionally the coworker offers tickets to Danny, but each time we've been busy or otherwise unable to go. 

FINALLY, the stars aligned and Danny was able to get his NFL fix. 

It was only a two hour drive to the stadium...and a long night for paying a babysitter....and definitely worth it....at least one time.

So "the Pats" stadium is pretty huge, which was completely worth seeing, and it certainly brought an interesting crowd that I really enjoyed watching during the low lights of the game.  Also, did you know that a shopping mall surrounds the stadium?  And if you get hungry you can hop on over to the McDonald's or a variety of other restaurants overlooking the field?  It certainly accommodates to everyone.

We enjoyed the game, even the celebratory gun shots from the militia after scoring a touchdown, but we unanimously concluded that college football games are still more exciting (and not nearly as expensive). 

We have to wait patiently for that to start and then Danny will be glued to the TV and Internet until after Christmas.  Tis the season!

It's the most wonderful time of the year, right?! I bet that was a lot of fun.

It certainly is. And guess what? Kristy gets to work as an usher or ticket taker at all the home BYU football games. She figured it was a perfect job for her since she is used to going to football games and not watching them.
