That's a little T.G.I.F. treat for all you bloggers and friends of bloggers out there! Since I reserve Fridays for "Family Life & Stuff" posts, today it's all about being a team supporter. My sons' high school homecoming game is tonight, so everyone's excited. And, yeah, I'll be hawking $1 raffle ticket chances on $500 or a flat screen TV, but it'll still be fun.
I *may* even put on the Wolfie! costume. My kids will be sooooooooo so so so pleased. LOL. {See last photo. Note lovely expression. Sorry you can't see the humongous wolf slippers on my feet and gigantor green & white clappers!}
Speaking of football, if you haven't had the full tailgating experience (we do it for high school and college games here), you have no idea of the fun you're missing. LSU fans (Geaux Tigers!) have the reputation of being the #1 tailgating enthusiasts, so rather than explain it, here are a few pics from last weekend's game, courtesy of local talk radio station WJBO 1150 AM ~~
See all those purple and gold shirts filling the stadium? Imagine them all 10-24 hours before kickoff covering every square inch of the LSU campus, cooking, eating, drinking and making merry. Now you have a more accurate mental picture of true athletic supporters. If you want even more tailgating photos, surf here: http://www.wjbo.com/cc-common/gallery/globalphotos.html?section=lsu
As for me, I'm minor league with my thrown-together mascot costumes. But, durn, it's still a hoot, and worth every Saturday morning case of "wolf throat" I get from screaming at the games. Go Wolves!
*Man, wish I didn't care so much about what other people think of me.* ;o)
