Fun Day, Great Game, Hard Loss !!!

We spent the night in Prattville with Michael's Mother so we could be in Auburn bright and early. As in, we pulled into Auburn around 7:30am.. early !! We dropped off ALL of our stuff and headed straight to College Gameday.. If you live under a rock and are not aware... ESPN College Gameday was in Auburn for the LSU game. After spending way too much time on Thursday, our signs were ready and so were we.. Ready to be on ESPN !!!! We got our spot, and waited and waited and waited.. Finally 9:00am rolled around and WE WERE LIVE !!!!!! LIVE FROM AUBURN, ALABAMA it was COLLEGE GAMEDAY !!!!
Here is Michael and I with our signs waiting for Gameday to begin.. As you can see we were not the only ones with this idea.

Us at Gameday (do not worry, someone was holding our signs for us)

Gameday last from 9-11am every Saturday.. We hung around until a little after 10:30.. By that time we knew (we as in our signs) had already made in on TV many, many times... The wind was wiping and our signs took a beating. They had about had it, but they did their job.

My sign... Do you get it??? Let me explain...... Trindon Holliday is short.. 5'5 to be exact.. Very short for a college football player.. (tall compared to me, but most are) .. Still not getting my sign?? The lollipop Guild is from the Wizard of Oz (one of my all time favorite movies).. Sing it with me...

We represent the Lollipop Guild, The Lollipop Guild.. And in the name of the Lollipop Guild... We'd like to welcome you to Munchkin Land !!

Please tell me you get it now ??? I would love to take credit for this genius slogan, but it was all Michael.. Hilarious if you ask me !!!! Once we got back to our tailgate, we stuck the stick in the ground for all to see. Even the LSU fans got a kick out of it.. It was a photo opportunity for many..

Of course Michael came up with his slogan as well.. Let me apologize now if you are reading this and have a lisp.. But this one got many laughs as well (probably from those without a lisp) !!

Cortney and Martina walked the zillion miles from their tailgate to come see us... We had a great time hanging out under the tent and talking..
The Aubie at our tailgate was another Photo Opportunity for many.. We said we should have charged $1 per photo (we would be rich, well not really, but SO many people took pictures with our Aubie)

We have a Super Fun tailgating crew... Football season is when we see these friends the most..
Hal, Travis, Justin, and Michael

Cortney and I

Michael and Ryan Powell (a friend from Auburn) chilling and talking to all who pass by on the road.. Notice the BULLHORN in Michael's hand.. That thing is from the devil I tell you and Michael loves it !!!! In fact... all the guys love it !!!

Tiger Walk was packed... I love to see it like this.. Our guys were so pumped as they walked through..
Once Tiger walk started Michael pushed his way to the front so he could call each player by name and give them a High Five !!! Hey whatever works !!!
The smoke comes and with locked elbows our guys start coming...

This is my favorite picture from the entire day.. I love the zoom on our camera (this was taken from the upper deck) LOVE IT !!!

Look at all that Orange in the stands.. Love it !!

Well like I said in the Title... Fun Day.. Great Game.... but HARD LOSS...
We had a blast spending the entire day in Auburn. Our tailgate was so much fun.
The game was great.. It was college football at its best and a typical Auburn vs LSU game !! A nail bitter till the end.
No scoreboard picture this week.. To much of a heart breaker..
AWESOME day.. if only my title read...

Fun day.. Great Game.. Awesome Win...

Then it would have been a Perfect Day.. (well that and Alabama losing)
