OSUK
Sometimes lucid, mostly confused
Well, had a blast yesterday. Woke up at 7 local time. Sis made a great breakfast. Went out to the front yard and took an O-H-I-O picture in front of the big cactus. 5 min later Brutus Buckeye retweeted it. Left for Glendale from Scottsdale at 9. It was me, my son, my bro in law, and his 2 son in laws. My sis warned me that my bro in law forgets things like tickets all the time, so I made sure he had them. He assured me he had given them to his most reliable son in law. It took a half hour to get over to Glendale, we parked at least a mile from the stadium, and began the hike. Got through tight security and then realized that the tickets were back in the truck. Unbelievable. We still got to our seats a half hour before the game started, but geez.
I would say the stadium was around 70% scarlet. Buckeye Nation never ceases to amaze me. During timeouts the stadium put fan shots on the screen; my favorite moment with that was when they showed a woman with a scUM hat on, and Buckeye and Irish fans united in hearty boos. Who goes to an Ohio State-Notre Dame game in scUM gear? Our section was mixed with fans from both teams, but mostly Buckeye fans. We were right beside the tunnel to the Buckeye locker room. Bosa walked past us after his bullshit ejection.
Funny aside: I go to lots of sporting events, especially high school. Girls and boys basketball tourny and AAU events all over the midwest, and football games.
And I go to college basketball and football games every now and then. So, I run into all kinds of people at these things, but there is this one guy, Bob, from New Philadelphia that I seem to run into at maybe 50-75% of these events. On the way out here I laughed at the thought of me running into Bob at the Fiesta Bowl. At half I went up on the concourse for more libation, and while I was watching TBDBITL someone grabs me around the neck from behind and turns me around - and there was Bob. It's weird how many times I run into this guy, and it's even weirder that I would run into him this far from home, and even weirder that he would be in the same part of the stadium I was in, and then off the charts weird that he would recognize me in the crowd. I need advice. Is Bob a stalker? LOL.
As for the football, it was great for the Bucks to come out and show that they were focused and motivated. They were clearly the more talented team and started that way. The Irish don't quit. The score before half kept them in the game. I never really felt that Ohio State would lose the game, but mo did shift there for a while in the 3rd qtr. Zeke's run kinda restored normal order to the universe, and we walked out happy.
The boys want to go eat lunch. I will check back in later or next week.
