9.10.2012

it's the most wonderful time of the year!

No, it's not the time of the year where we get to put up lights, bake cookies, drink eggnog, and open presents.
It's when we eat chicken wings, drink beer, scream obscenities at the television, and dress in our favorite team's colors.
AKA...football season!
Alas, the day had finally come.
An ASU (Arizona State University) Saturday home game.
You see, we had already played one home game but it was on a Thursday night.
And at my ripe old age of 24, there was just no way I'd be attending.
I watched it on the comfort of my couch and it's a good thing because the game was a total doozy. 
We won 65-6.

I decided to document this Saturday's game for your viewing pleasure. 

(You're welcome.)
The view of Sun Devil Stadium over Tempe Town Lake.
Isn't she a beauty?


That's me throwing up a "fork 'em!"
I promise you it's not some gang sign, but rather the universal ASU symbol for sticking a fork in the other team.
ASU's mascot is a Sun Devil and Sun Devils carry pitchforks. 
Thus, Sun Devil fans like to fork 'em!
Left: Sister and I.
Right: I thought this was such a cute, appropriate photo of Colton and I. Something completely rare to happen at an ASU tailgate. That is until a Facebook friend kindly pointed out the person in the background doing a keg stand.....I mean, really dude?!
Left: Lovebirds, Makenzie and Luke.
Top Right: Colton and his bestie.
Bottom Right: Getting ready to go inside the stadium!

We have arrived!
Funny faces and fork ‘em...two essentials for attending an ASU game.

I suppose since I just wrote an entire post on the ASU game, I should probably share an actual photo of the game (see above). Oh, and we won 45-14...Go Devils!

P.S.  Congrats to Jan at JanMLoves!
You just won the earrings from Box of Pretties!

Love college football season! I hear y'all are getting a new stadium in the near future.

Elissa said...

yay for football season! Since I went to a tiny small private college I didn't have the 'college football gameday' experience. I am a big UGA fan though and haven't been to a game in years. Hopefully that might be able to change this season.

How fun! I can totally relate to the football fan thing. The packers and my alma mater, which has yet to make me happy in a season, the University of Minnesota, deeply embedded in my heart. Love it! xoxo linds {{www.rubygirlblog.com}}

College Football is such a highlight of the fall- my team just beat our rivals for the second year in a row after losing for too many years so it's really exciting! Glad you had a good first game of the year!
