Mom's first Husker game!

This last Saturday, I got to go with my mom to her very first Nebraska football game. She's been a fan for....well....longer than I have and she's never been to the stadium so, I wanted to make sure she got the full experience. We parked away from the stadium a few blocks and followed the "sea of red" to the campus and we stopped in front of the Music Bldg to watch the Cornhusker Marching Band perform before the game. Then we made our way to the stadium to get to our seats. We had fun taking pictures -- but I mostly had fun watching my mom take it all in. She did say that seeing it in person was "way better than watching it on TV". I'm glad she had a good time. She made friends with the couple sitting beside us and we had a good laugh at the "First Down Guy" in front of us. He would stand up after every first down Nebraska made and make the signal that the officials make. He kind of looked like one of those hunting dogs who point at the prey........

Anyway, we had a great time and Nebraska won the game after a bit of drama in the first half. I'm glad my mom could go and I'm glad we could experience her first game together. I hope we can do more in the future!
