BYU vs. Texas Football Game

Last night, Eric and I went to the BYU football game. It started at 5:00 but was delayed until like 7:00. We went down to Provo yesterday around noon so I could take a test at the UVU testing center before the game. We then hung out with some friends. We went to Sub Zero for ice cream and while we were in there, a huge storm came in. At this point, it was 4:30 and we were needing to get over to the stadium. It was a total downpour. My hair was all cute and curled and then it was totally flat! Eric and I were not prepared at all. I had on a maxi skirt and my BYU shirt and Eric had on shorts and his BYU shirt. Our friends drove us to the stadium and it was raining so hard. We saw a car thats wheels were all under water and the water was up to the doors also. There was probably water in the car most definitely. We got into the stadium and stayed under cover for a while. We tried to buy ponchos but they were all sold out. We went with our friends Chad and Katie Carr. Katie (she is formally a Bowen) and I grew up together and went to Ghana, Africa last year together. She is a great friend and we had tons of fun with them. They got married last week and are the funnest couple. We were glad that they were able to come with us. We stayed under cover and talked until the game started. We ate hot dogs, popcorn, and nachos and just tried to stay warm. 

The game finally started and it was such a good game. BYU beat Texas 21-40. We were surprised because everyone thought that they would get killed. Texas killed BYU last year but that got changed this year. Eric bought a shirt and wiped down the seats where we were sitting. That was nice to not get too wet. It started to rain off and on throughout the game so Katie and Chad went to their apartment during half time to get us some blankets and sweatshirts to stay warm. 

After the game, I fell asleep in the car and slept the whole way home. I was dead tired. Eric woke me up when we got back to Draper and was starving so we ended up going to Applebee's and getting some dinner before we went home. It was a fun game and super fun to go back down to Provo and cheer on the Cougars. I guess you could say that Eric and I are die hard BYU fans. We love still going to the games even though we don't live down there anymore. Yay for the BYU Cougars!
