Cotton Bowl 2012!


Image

A contractor that Derek works with offered him tickets and a parking pass to the Cotton Bowl! I love Derek's job!

We were about even with the ten yard line on the second tier seven rows up. The seats were in the club area, in other words "the fancy area." We were on the very edge of the "fancy area" but we were still fancy for one night. There were secerity guards guarding the entrance as to keep "the common folk" out of our gourmet concession, cushy seats and private bathrooms.
I wanted a soft pretzel and had to go mingle with the peasants to get one, but if I wanted a black bean gourmet veggie burger I could have stayed where we were.

The Ginormous Screen!!! HUGE!

Oh, and our seats were on the Arkansas side...
We were surrounded by red.
The fans were really nice and fun, but then we were introduced to drunk Mike

Image
Drunk Mike doing his thang, which was doggin' on us Kansas State fans.
Image
the lady that came down to kick said drunk Mikes butt.
The guy in black talked her down and they went and got security instead.

Image
getting a little talkin' to.
The security guard came down two more times.
He apologized to us the rest of the night after that.

It was good entertainment.
Very sad we didn't win, but we still had a very fun and eventful night.

THE END
