Subtle huh?
When John bought season tickets to U of U football this year I told him to give my ticket to his brother because I didn't want to take the kids to the games, BUT, I wanted the ticket to tonight's game against BYU.
The U of U has special significance for us. Not only is it Johns alma mater, it also has a special place in our family. In 2004, we watched Alex Smith lead the Utes toan undefeated season culminating in crushing the Cougars resulting in an invite to the Fiesta Bowl (BCS bullshit). John and I went to the Fiesta bowl in Tempe and watched Alex Smith play and win his last college game (Also, if you remember, Alex Smith went on to be the #1 NFL draft pick of 2005). We came home from Arizona pregnant with our first son. Not coincidentally to be named Alex.
So I held my claim on that ticket until last week when I decided that John would have so much more fun at the game with his brother because they'd gone to all of the games this season together. I'd rather spend a nice Saturday with my boys anyway, likely with the game on TV in the background.
GO UTES!!!!
