Geaux Tigers
I am writing this roughly three hours prior to kickoff of the 2008 BCS National Championship game and I can hardly stand it anymore. It’s time to get this game started!
Luckily for LSU fans, the game was previously scheduled to be played in New Orleans before the teams were selected. This means that the game is taking place about an hour away from my home town. Unfortunately for me, I am not currently down there and am not able to partake in the game festivities. I wish I was in New Orleans today eating some great food and “Tigerbaiting” some Ohio State fans.
The Dome is going to be rocking tonight and hopefully the Tigers will be leaving with a victory and another BCS National Championship. It should be a great game. Geaux Tigers!
Update:
My Mom and her husband were lucky enough to get tickets to the big game tonight, so they have been having a great weekend down in New Orleans. I got a call from her this morning saying that they were riding around the French Quarter in a fire truck that is sort of a mascot for my step father’s family’s Ford Dealership. Later in the day, I found some images of their crew that some random person took in New Orleans and posted on the internet. Looks like they are having a great time.
According to my mom (who has been to Mardi Gras in New Orleans a ton and many LSU games), New Orleans is CRAZY right now. Man, I wish I was down there!
Update:
30 minutes until pre-game starts! Game time is near.
Update:
One more commercial break before kick off. I’m about to explode! LSU won the coin toss and will kick off.
Update:
Start of the 4th quarter and LSU is winning 31-17. Only a few minutes left and my voice is almost gone.
