Wow. Unless you have been in a cave east of Tiller, you know the Oregon Ducks played one of their best games in years today - routing the number 6 team Cal - 42-3.
Again this week Brian Prawitz and I sat in the midst of the press box to catch all the action.
Some random notes:
Cals only score - 5:55 left in the first, and only a FG that shouldn't have gone in.
Brian's Pepsi spilled with 6 min left in the first
Brian went back to get more Pepsi - 5 times. (and had less trips to the restroom than last week....oh never mind)
Brian tried to go in the wrong restroom with 5:43 in the 2nd ( don't ask....)
The Oriental chicken and rice was awesome today in the Press Box. (no they don't serve wine..)
Cal Mascot (a bear of course) looks really sad - (even without the huge loss). I hope he doesn't have to wear the costume on the plane home. Its pretty second rate...like a bad church drama program.
Its a long walk back up the "hill" from visting friends in row two of section 28. Was thankful for the Press Elevator
The crowd was so jazzed by the score that the "WAVE" started at the beginning of the fourth quarter.
I went back for popcorn three times
Highlight - being on the field at the end and in the Duck locker room, as Brian talked to a few of the players. A distinguished looking guy was in the room too but I couldn't place him - Phil Knight sound familiar?
It doesn't get any better than today
I didn't know my Pepsi spilled.
ReplyDeleteThe 'alternate' bathroom was one closer to press row and was occupied (and guarded by a security type who wasn't offering any help.)
I fooled Kyle into thinking I tried to get into a women's restroom to shorten the walk to the loo. Little did I know he was going to broadcast the fact to the free world. -B-
