12.11.11

it was all worth it in the end.

sleeping in a tent for two nights
being over heated the first,
and under heated the second.
checking in three times a day at ridiculous times.
going 48 hours on 4 hours of sleep.
standing in line for  6 hours straight.
and racing 1,000 other kids in the spectrum for the best seats,
totally worth every single second!

friday after we had cleaned up our tents and gone to class,
we waited in line to get seats at the game.
[camping out guaranteed that we had a seat, 
but it didn't guarantee that it was a good one.]
so for six hour we stood and waited.
and waited.
and waited.
and waited.


some of our group.


the three of us that camped out thursday night.
[brando got sick.]


mel and i owe mark big time for getting us a ticket!



so stoked for the game!


nat was in our group too!



tons of people packed together!

at 5:30 they opened the doors so we could get a seat.
talk about a mad house!
people were pushing and shoving and you gave the lady your activity card, she swiped it and then it was a mad dash to get a seat.
imagine thousands of kids scrambling for great seats.
but our group was a champ.
half court, seven rows up.
we were pretty happy campers!



our seats were awesome!
and it was a FULL house!


and i knew utah state fans were crazy and rude but i didn't know how bad it really was!
the signs people made were insane!



sorry it's backward, it was the best i could do.





the pope!



you can't see it very well but on the right there is a full sized poster of darth vader to go with the poster.

poor davies, we showed him no mercy!

the spectrum was so loud! 
when something happened it was so loud you couldn't even hear yourself screaming.
i loved every second of it.
and at the end of the game it was all worth it to see this:


and we were happy.
[disregard the crustyness of these next few pictures, we were exhausted.]




tent buddies!
last night i got to sleep in my own bed.
all by myself.
alone.
and i was warm.
and i slept like a baby.
last night was perfect you could say.
