Squeaky 35-31

We spent our weekend in College Station, TX! Jason and I were able to drive down and meet up with 2 couples. We started off Friday visiting the local winery in Bryan, TX but none of us had our camera so we don't have those pictures... it was fun! Then we went out to the OSU Alumni Association party in their "strip" area (which was really neat and clean). Saturday was game day - up and ready for The Walk at the team hotel and then off to the stadium. We had great timing -arriving just as the Corp and the band marched by to Kyle Field. Here's Friday night at the Mad Hatter. We also really enjoyed the Dixie Chicken and were surrounded by others wearing orange!

Halleys, Walkers and Halls

Here we are in our seats. It was fun, but it was cold! It never reached the 76 degrees forecasted. I wore my rain pancho to help block the wind. Just as the game was starting, I looked back and realized my cousins and aunt and uncle were sitting on the row directly behind us! that was fun to see them.

After the game, we met up with more family and were taken to eat at the local hot spot - obviously a favorite as it was far away from the stadium and still crowded - the Koppe Bridge Bar !?!? Delicious. Thanks, Alyson and Ron, for showing us around town!

Jason and I are trying to go to one Big XII game each year. Last year, we went to Austin to the University of Texas. After having gone to both of those stadiums, staying two nights in each town, and going out, here's who wins in certain categories:

Stadium: UT

Nice Fans: UT (that's going to shock some of you Sooner fans - sorry, but they were friendlier!)

Tradition: A&M

Night Life: UT (can't beat 6th Street)

Campus: A&M

OSU Rollout: UT

I sat at the game thinking: "Can I be a Yell Leader?!?"

Way to go, Pokes, on an away victory at Kyle Field!
