MIssouri vs. Kansas Game


Kyle's dad got tickets to the MU vs. KU game the Saturday after Thanksgiving. It was about 40 degrees and dropped down to the lower 30's. VERY cold.... Thankfully once we got in the stadium it was much warmer. This game was HUGE. It was packed out and people were crazy for their teams.


Since Kyle went to the the university of Missouri-Rolla, and his brother Skyler is currently attending Kansas, the family was split in their loyalties. Kyle's mom and sister decided to take up the Kansas side of things, much to Kyle's dismay.

It was a cold, but fun night. Thankfully for Kyle's sake Missouri won out and he was a happy man. (I don't think Skyler cared even a tiny bit who won) I think this last pic is hilarious. It looks so sweet, but I was actually slapping his mouth, because he wouldn't cooperate for the picture. :-) His sister just happened to catch it. We did have one annoying incident. There was a fan sitting behind Kyle's mom who wasn't with it enough to handle his "cold beverage" without spilling it on Kyle's mom every five minutes. She finally gave him a look, and he got in her face and started screaming at her that it was no big deal. I thought we were going to have WWIII, but thankfully no fights were started. But then I turned around and saw Kyle's mom, who is a sweetheart, with big tears in her eyes--that is the closest I have ever come to actually getting up and socking someone right in the nose!! I convinced her to move a couple of seats away from him and probably two minutes later, the guy dropped his whole drink in her seat. Some people are just beyond rude. If I would have been thinking, I would have gotten security to get him out of there. But even with that, we had a good time. Kyle had fun with his family and friends all in one place, and it had a good ending--at least for the MS fans.

Sound like a lot of fun, minus the rude fan. College football games are the best. Although I have never been to one live. I know that was a big game, the win put Missouri #1 in the polls. How exciting, I am jealous!!!
