The morning of the National Championship Game, we had no intentions of leaving Palm Springs. O was getting ready to go golfing and I was going to go shopping at the outlets with the Niddries. But then O read some article about how tickets were the cheapest in the history of the BCS bowl. You know I love a good deal and O loves his sports so we randomly decided to go. After a few phone calls to grandparents to set up LBC's day, we were off to Pasadena.
The pubs and restaurants were packed, but we found a little Italian place after we got our teams' gear. We started a few conversations about the fact that we were supporting opposing teams. Then when we said we actually didn't go to either school and actually lived in Singapore- this blew some minds. Add in the fact that we bought the tickets that morning and left our 5 month old baby with the grandparents in Palm Springs, everyone was flabbergasted.
Tailgating, of course, was so fun. We even saw Charles Barkley walking to the VIP section.
We sat stood next to some Auburn and FSU fans so we had a good mix of reactions to the game.
When Auburn scored.....
When FSU scored....
Couldn't believe that some people said they paid $1000 for their tickets. Don't think they were impressed with our ticket prices. It was a long, but so exciting day. Turned out to be a pretty good game too.
