I spent yesterday driving to, tailgating at, and recovering from the football game between the Missouri Tigers (Mizzou-RAH!) and the San Diego State Aztecs. My daughter and I made a girls' football road trip, driving the 5 hours or so from Omaha on Saturday morning. We met up with a cousin who attends MU for a tailgate party, and then took our seats while Marching Mizzou did their pre-game routines.
The Tigers looked promising on the initial drive, scoring an easy 7 points. Things got rougher after that, with a performance described as lackluster, at best.
The beasts did man up in the final 2 minutes to pull off the win. My offspring and I spent the night a few miles down the road, then finished our adventure this morning.
I'm hoping to fit in a "real" post between now and my next trip on Tuesday. In the meantime, enjoy your kids and some football!
What is this "autumn" of which you speak?
Temperature here yesterday was 111F.
