For the labor day weekend we went to Boise to spend time with Noal and Wendy and to watch the Boise State football game. We drove to Boise Wednesday evening. The kids were going to miss 2 days of school for this trip. We figured that this was an okay time to miss 2 days. School had just started and so they weer still reviewing things.
Thursday evening Boise State played the Oregon Ducks. Boise played Oregon last year in Oregon and won so this year Oregon was ready for payback. This has been a much talked about game for 6 months now. Enoch and I were very excited to get tickets to it. We bought season tickets because there were going to be no tickets available for the public. We bought extra tickets to this game and other games to sell for more to make up the price we paid for the game. So if everything works the way we want we won't have paid anything for this Oregon game. The game was completely sold out.
This year in the stadium they have asked that people wear certain colors in the area you are sitting in. We sat where we wore white. Enoch surprised me with a Boise State shirt. The games started late too. Kick off was a 8:15 PM. Enoch and I had really good seats. We sat at the 50 yard line on the side of the press box and a little more than half way up. We could see everything so clearly. It was awesome.
The game was a good game. Not the best because both teams made many errors but Boise States defense was awesome. Just before the 2nd quarter Org eon had only 6 passing and rushing yards and no 1st downs. That is pathetic. By half time they only had 14 all together.
Boise won the game. The most talked part about the game which was sad that it was really the only thing talked about since they did win was the Oregon player that punched a Boise State Player in the face. After it happened which we didn't see they showed it on the big screen over and over again. Well the crowd started booing the Oregon player and he got even more mad and tried to attack some of the fans. Because of the incident he is suspended for the year and his chance of playing in the NFL is gone. So stupid that he let some comments and losing effect him so badly.
Enoch and I had so much fun though. We loved being at the game. We also loved that Noal and Wendy watched our kids for us so we could see the game.

Enoch very excited to drive to the game. We have flags for our car that we have for game day as well as a nice big sticker on the back window, our fiesta bowl sticker (we went to that so we had to have it on the car) as well as magnets now. Yes we are fans.
You can really see the crowd and their shirt colors in this picture.
Oregon's rushing and passing yards. Still not sure why it says 7 because 5+1 equals 6 last time I checked.
Boise on the blue turf.
Enoch after the game. Yippy they won!
My shirt says "The Myth is True..Ducks Do Crash on the blue." It had the date as well on it.

That is awesome. The funny thing is, I had to see it from the other side(in duckville). Too funny, glad you guys had a blast! I wish I could have seen it.
