It's tough being a Duck Fan

We went to the USC vs. Oregon game last night.
Highlights of the night:

meeting courtney and sean to tailgate! (they flew down from OR and we miss hanging out with them!)

first time in the LA Coliseum

the girls, me...lindsay (sean's sister)...court

matt and i

the crew...sean and court, matt and i, and linds and her boyfriend matt. her matt is a trojan fan, so my matt was covering his jersey for our picture :)

scoreboard in the first quarter

it's fun to watch football live

it started to rain, it was awesome!

the coliseum at night...i didn't know it was built for the olympics in the 40's, so cool!

the kids came with us, they stayed in the hotel while we were at the game. these dogs like to travel!

the non-highlights:
1. being booed by EVERYONE and their mother in a USC jersey (including matt getting booed by a 3 year old, now that was funny!)
2. the second, third, and fourth quarters of the game.
3. the outdoor techno party adjacent to our hotel until 4 in the morning. literally our walls were shaking. it sucked.
4. while walking from our hotel to get dinner after the game, a homeless woman on the street offered matt a sexual favor in exchange for a cheeseburger. no joke, how gross is that?

We'll get 'em next time, Ducks!

Hey...I would have thought the Ducks would do well in wet weather! Too bad about the outcome.

I laughed myself silly about the homeless woman
but I honestly believe Matt is worth more than a cheeseburger. Aunt Laura calls him a "stud-muffin". Hmmm...is that better than a cheeseburger??

Great pictures Whitney!

What a fun group, I miss you all! I have been booed there before when I cheered for UCLA :) Chad says "Go Ducks!"
