The big college football national championship game will be played tomorrow night. It's always sad when the season ends and we have to wait for fall football to come around again. As Texans, we're rooting for TCU. Who knows, maybe they'll pull off another upset and win it. Last month we attended our own local bowl game at the Alamodome. Since the college coed will graduate from UT in May, we told her and her older sister to invite friends.
Since we had a bigger crowd than usual, we enjoyed watching from a sky box this year. The food was pretty good and so were the views. The Longhorns didn't pull out a win, but we enjoyed all of the festivities. We let my brother-in-law, his dad, nephew and a family friend use our sideline passes during the first quarter. My BIL's dad was a member of the 1964 UT national championship football team and has the ring to prove it. At 80, we were happy to see him down on the field with the team one more time.
Our girls also enjoyed taking in the spectacle of college football from the player's perspective and getting a gander at mascot Bevo, who made the trip from Austin. Better luck next year, Longhorns!
