Road Trip #2: BSU vs. UWYO football game
I have a really good friend who is a professor at the University of Wyoming and my niece D. just started attending there as a transfer student, so I saw this game as an excuse to go see C. & D. and to let my foreign exchange student experience a university football game. I talked my brother, D's dad, into coming along and then invited my other brother as well. It turns out we ended up taking two cars. My exchange student got to ride in my brother's brand new truck with D's friend and my brother's friend/colleague. I had my other brother drive my car with another niece and a friend who was along for the ride to see her daughter. My brothers don't really agree on the route, so they each took different routes and what I liked about this road trip is that I didn't have to drive!! There were two other drivers in my car, so I let them drive and I just enjoyed the scenery and the trip. Half the group stayed at D's place and half the group stayed at C's place in Laramie. We had a wonderful time! Before the game, we did a little site seeing as we went to a local territorial prison turned museum and then went in search for ice cream. We never found the ice cream, but did find a western store, which was cool. I ended up having to wear UWYO colors as I went with C. to the President's tailgate and was told I had to...the president of the university thanked me for wearing yellow when I got to meet him.
Anyway, BSU kicked UWYO's butt and I really liked how UWYO fans were so gracious about losing and wished BSU luck in the bcs.
