Our Day at Ole Miss (Saturday)

What an awesome day!  We got to Old Miss like 3 hours early and traffic was already backed up onto the freeway.  After finding a parking spot with only minor difficulty, we started to walk around and let me tell ya- these people take their tailgating seriously!  They set up tons of tents and barbeque and drink and tailgate all day.  Anyway, the game was of course the best part.  It. Was. Awesome.  Ole Miss was ahead 13-0 in the 4th quarter and we came back, scored 2 touchdowns and won!!!  I actually understand for the first time how people can be so emotionally involved in football.  And it was super exciting because the night before I got the autograph of the guy that pretty much won the game.  And my Dad let me paint his face half blue and half white, which was pretty great.  So we walked out of there feeling pretty good about ourselves.  And as incredibly devoted as the Ole Miss fans are and as much as I know they wanted to win, they were sosososo nice to us, complimenting us on the game and telling us that it was good to have us in their town.  Good ole southern hospitality, I guess :)
