Go Cougars!

Alright, I know September 26th was over a month ago, but I wanted to post about my first BYU game. Cubby and Dan called me up and asked if I wanted to go to the BYU vs. Colorado State football game with them. I quickly put on my cougars shirt and headed out the door. It was extremely hot and we were in direct sunlight, but at half time we went to the other side and sat in the shade for the rest of the game with some other friends. Once we sat down, guess who was sitting in front of us...John Bytheway! A hilarious youth speaker who gives amazing inspirational talks and has written many books. I was so excited. It was neat to see someone who's usually talking to hundreds of people have a normal life and watch football! Throughout the game, Cubby and Dan helped out with my lack of football knowledge and explained moves, tackles, etc. By the end of the game, I felt like I knew most of the basics and it was really enjoyable to watch the game. In the end, the Cougars won 42 to 23. Go Cougs! After the game I went with Cubby and Dan, and three other boys to an all you can eat pizza restaurant. I tried to keep up with the guys and ate 5 pizzas (including a salad, pizza desserts, and ice cream). I know I shouldn't be proud of that but I am. With BYU winning and spending time with friends, I had a blast!
