College football!

A few weeks ago we took the boys to their first college football game, Wyoming-vs-CU. Despite the dismal outcome of the game, it was a fun afternoon and they are looking forward to Wyoming-vs-AFA in a few weeks. And I don't care who you root for, when they run Ralphie around the field, it's just pretty darn cool: We sat in the north end-zone, nice and close to the field. However, we were a little concerned when we noticed the net that catches the footballs after kicks was actually behind us. Seemed like a bit of a design oversight; we were actually sitting between the upright and the net. Surely they wouldn't? Oh yes, they did. They dutifully pulled the net up to protect the brick building behind the stands for each kick. In fairness, the kicks all flew over our heads and were basically smothered by the net, but we certainly made sure to pay attention whenever the teams were kicking! :)
